Yeah, lack of mountains was disturbing. I hadn't realized that a large part of my 'compass' involved seeing which mountain(s) were where. Then I realized that the natives were calling these little lumps with trees (!!) growing on the tops - wait for it - mountains! No self respective mountain would have trees on the top

Yes. ...and even the trees were stumpy! My wife is originally from OK but even she left as soon as possible for Colorado so she knows what mountains really are!
When we moved to MD she was a little nervous because there were 60+ft trees all over the place and she expected them to fall over at any moment!
She says some places are great but Oklahoma is only OK.

A new low today when I am offered human hair from India rather than the usual frequent invitations to heavy-industrial equipment expositions in China, solicitations to purchase autos (US), to order fresh produce (US).
After years of their digital eyes scanning my e-mails, and, I assume, reading my location via IP address ...
Don't they have a clue ?
errr ... perhaps better they don't ?
I am, often, using a VPN (Nord) now to "digitally manifest" in the US so I can see more Netflix content : that may account for ad content from Walmart.
The price we pay for sticking with a browser out of habit.

Ahhh. You don't realize the true nature of the problem!
Someone has been impersonating you (MAC's, IP's, emails, everything). We don't yet know who it is, except that they like dark-haired wigs (and perhaps, ripe bananas).

Good grief ... of course ! It's the same people that film me with hidden cameras and insert embarrassing short videos of me into nightly news programs !
Thanks for the wake-up call

Maunder.
Anagram of unarmed, Mr Maunder is the boss of this site, and it also means to ramble on when speaking.

Is the correct answer! You are up tomorrow.
Was it a bit much giving three solutions in one clue?

Not at all, it can act as a red herring if you're not aware of one of the factors e.g. that to maunder is a synonym for ramble.
