Did you ask your wife if she ordered it?

I was wondering the same thing. He could be sitting there in ambush mode when she asks it got there yet, but I figured that was one of the first things he did.

The funny thing was it was addressed to my full name.  Which I never  have anything too me with that. Either my company or my first initial and last name.  So that was the 1st wtf.  She would never use my card, is not a signer on said card and she has her own accounts. As soon as I saw my full name(middle as well) I knew something was up.

I had a ham radio friend name Doug Jacques who was a long haul trucker.   I needed to get in touch with him and he wasn't on the air, so I looked him up in the phone book  (back when we had those).  Couldn't find his name.  Next time I saw him I inquired.  Doug Jacques was his truck driving nom-de-plume.  Real name:

Garsney Sheldon Wigslip, III

Did you get to keep the laptop, or did someone pay to get it shipped back where it came from? For $1,900 I bet someone wanted it back, and wanted it badly. I would. Homey don't have that kind of cheddar lying around the crib.
