Well, I'm about done with my 26th year of running my own business and it always has been the same, business cycles that is.

We were setting records through December and January but by the first day in February it seemed to shut off like a spigot. The timing varies by year and the swing also can be yearly different, but it always happens. We went from 38k weeks to a 26k week first week in Feb. I usually see no difference in this pattern til after tax time; which shouldn't even matter the way people do taxes now. I guess with MB owners its having to pay the anticipated tax shortage on Apr 15.
