The Christmas Computer Communication Cluster

1) Concept: What happens when three people use the same Amazon Prime account?

I made a list for John on Amazon so that he would have some idea what to get me for Christmas. Ladies, if you want what you really WANT, I suggest you do this. What you don't do is put things on the list that you are planning on buying for your spouse. Somehow I did just that without realizing I had. John has an old laptop that is apparently run by tiny squirrels who are really tired, so I decided to get him a much newer, faster, lighter model.

2) Concurrence: I ordered said computer for John, then deleted all vestiges of the order on Amazon so that John wouldn't see it. What I didn't know is that John was doing the exact same thing. Yes, we each bought the other the exact same computer.

3) Conclusion: All this taught me is that I am woefully inadequate when it comes to covering my tracks. I always assumed that if I wanted, I could perpetrate the perfect crime because I would think of everything. It's a fortunate thing for me that I did not go into crime as a career choice.
