Amazon is my walls & in those black helicopters....

In another post here I wrote, "Paul Krugman". Afterwards I went to Amazondotcom and under the title 'Recommended for You' there were five books by Paul Krugman.
The walls have eyes and there are radio waves trying to get inside my head.
I've never bought any of Krugman's books from Amazon (or anywhere else) nor any other books on economics from Amazon.
Coincidence? No chance of that.
There's something happening here but I don't know what it is...

Hmmm...
I just logged in to my Amazon account, and they're just recommending things similar to what I've purchased recently through Amazon...(BTW, if you need printer ink, Amazon is the
only place to buy... you can get it for a fraction of what they charge at office supply stores or websites)
So Joe, I guess they're only tracking
you...

Or maybe they just figure you're the kinda guy who would pay money to buy books written by Paul Krugman...
Personally, I'd feel less insulted if they recommended that I buy books written by Carrot Top or Paris Hilton...

What I'm experiencing is much more similar to the ballad of a thin man.

Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich (D) on Thursday said he accepted New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's apology for any problems the George Washington Bridge lane closures caused for the mayor and town residents.
"I accepted his apology," Sokolich said after a meeting with the governor. "We believe we're content at the moment, and an investigation will tell us the balance of what needs to be told."
Even though Sokolich said that he did not want Christie to come to Fort Lee for an apology, Christie insisted and Sokolich said he was glad the governor stopped by.
"I'm glad he came," Sokolich said. "I indicated maybe it wouldn't be productive to come up now. It wasn't to be disrespectful. It was just, would it make more sense to do it when the investigation is completed? The governor insisted, and we would certainly welcome our governor with open arms, as we did."
Christie said he had "a very warm, very productive meeting" with Sokolich.
"I look forward to working with him in the future," Christie said while leaving the meeting.
Sokolich said that he believes Christie's claims that he did not know about his aides' plans to shut down lanes on the bridge.
"I take him for his word, which is, he didn't have anything to do with it," Sokolich said.

Obviously, if Christie had lied about not seeking an endorsement from Sokolich, the Fort Lee mayor wouldn't "take him for his word", he'd be calling him out for lying.
So we can now be reasonably certain that Christie was least telling the the truth about
that. (unless you believe Sokolich is part of the cover-up, which if you saw him on CNN yesterday you would know is impossible.)

Imagine this, you, or better yet your neighbor orders a book from Amazon for $12. And for this one low low price you can have a drone helicopter of your own!
Or better yet. Drone drops off book, you attach a 'special' payload which activates when the drone lands back at an Amazon "Fullfillment Center". Smoke bombs, stink bombs, noise makers that scoot around on the ground, live rodents, box-o-roaches! Household garbage. Small cats. (anything up to 4 pounds)
This could be a LOT of fun.
I don't think Jeff Beezels has really thought this one through.

Spot drone going to deliver package who-knows-where, shoot down drone, retrieve package and have drone mounted on your wall.
