I just received a magic item in the post that I have no recollection of buying? I either have alzheimers or a severe case of cups :D

Maybe you where drunk?

I got drunk in a mates house once, he had his laptop open showing me something on ebay. For the next two weeks random SNES games kept turning up at my house. Apparently drunken nostalgia had gotten the better of me and I bought a load of them from lots of different sellers

Ah drunken online ordering!

I once woke up and later in the day received email confirmation for my order of a 42" plasma TV!! :shock:

On the plus side it was only around £600.00 so that's ok! :?

I may have been born yesterday but I stayed up all night.

The modern world desperately needs a P.C. breathalyser. Any time you use a computer between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. you have to breathe into a tube, if you have a blood alcohol content of 0.06 or higher it locks down your email and any sites that your email is registered to, such as online stores, forums and especially Amazon with it's evil one click ordering.

Invoke not reason. In the end it is too small a deity.

It could be worse, a bi-polar patient once had a offer on a one million pound nursing home accepted. To say the estate agent was unhappy would not cover it.

Thats where it came from :lol:
It's "street magic by Paul Zenon", I don't even recognise the cover. Oh well, hopefully I'll find something useful inside.

From the latest Paul Zenon - Street Magic review, in book reviews.

Might jog your memory.
