Memorable
This morning I opened my e-mail and found a message from notification@powells.com.
'What the hell?' I asked myself.
'Psst!' said the e-mail. 'A book on your Notification List at Powells.com is now in stock or available for backorder.'
'What the hell?' I asked myself.
'Cinema of Josef Von Sternberg by John Baxter,' said the e-mail.
Oh, right! I must have used the Powells notification service on a whim because I couldn't find the book anywhere online, which I kind of remember. That must have been, what, over a year ago? I dunno, I forget. Computers never forget, eh? Or at least they remember longer than I do.
Score!
