I hate remembering crap like this AFTER I hit send...

Because we want to limit our sum() to only those rows that match the ORDER 
conditionals, we have to change our formula to recognized when to count 
and when to not count an order_item.

SELECT p.id, p.prod_name, sum(if(o.id is null,0,oi.quantity)) as qty
FROM products as p
INNER JOIN order_items as oi
ON (p.id = oi.product_id)
INNER JOIN orders as o
ON (o.id = oi.order_id)
AND o.status NOT IN ('cancelled', 'pending', 'ghost')
AND (o.created BETWEEN "2006-02-23 00:00:00" AND "2006-02-23 23:59:59")
GROUP BY p.id, p.prod_name

I think I need a nap! --- SORRY!
