Physically wanting a beer does not require ordering one, but the conscious decisions required to go about purchasing one must have a physical context, as does all thought, since thought is physical itself. IMO this conundrum only exists in a dualist's interpretation of mind/body. The mental process is part of a continuum between thirst and a purchased beer.
