I just went online and purchased a couple of items from Amazon.com - a piece of electronics equipment and a train DVD for Andrew.

Ordinary transaction, until I got to the "Thanks for your order" page. The recommendations they gave on that page really gave me cause for pause for just a minute. Based on a train DVD order and a gift for someone else, I get:

* DNS & BIND Cookbook (it's a reference book about configuring name servers so when you tell your web browser to go to www.stickman.org it knows how to find it).
* Just Your Type (apparently about creating a [implied romantic] relationship using personality types)
* Wedding Crashers (the DVD starring Owen Wilson)

If it were baseball, they'd be doing okay. The first one would apply (except I already have that book). The other two....what???????

Maybe they're using pigeons randomly pecking at keyboards to generate answers....
