Dunno if this has ever happened to anyone else...

I just won an auction on eBay and when I went to contact the seller I discovered ... WE HAVE THE SAME NAME (first, last)!

Scary.

Yes, Mr. Wipeout Sixsixseven. :p

He hasn't responded yet... maybe he too is in shock.

On an unrelated note, I forgot to take my medication for split-personality disorder.

Our e-mails are actually pretty similar. As expected, he uses first initial, last name as a naming convention. I have that address at a few places as well. Small world.

And no, my name isn't John Smith.
