Thanks to this thread, the wife and I just did all you can eat sushi.

So god drat full.

Edit: I ate 16 pieces of sashimi and two rolls :v: it's 20 bucks a person for all you can eat, so it's a loving steal if you can eat a lot of sushi. But oh god I hurt.

The AYCE sushi joints I've been to range between sub-par and 'welp, time to get some gravol'. I'd love to find a good one, because I like *lots* of sushi. My brother and I once racked up a $250 tab at a pretty reasonably priced place. We had two beers each.

This is a pretty drat good one. Not super high quality, but the best we've had in the area so far. Every sushi place here is AYCE, though.

Last time I was in Japan, my buddy and I spent close to 300USD at a place. Fatty tuna...so good.

Looks like they have the "drivatars" enabled for single player now. They are supposed to take the driving style of the person. If you have friends theirs' come first (if they've played the game I think). When Forza 5 first came out all the drivatars seemed to have ramming set to 100%. I presume they've toned that down. I kind of want to get an Xbox One again.

There's a "limit aggression" setting now, but you still get rammed by the AI once in a while., and the AI in general is pretty poo poo.

There's also a screenshot function in the xbone, double click the xbone button and hit X, and then it shows up in your profile on the website.

Can't prove that he was actually scamming, and he was probably using an anonymous pay as you go phone card.

I could have asked for the account number he wanted the money transferred to, but I didn't think of doing that until after I hung up.

So, any way he'd be able to find the VIN? Did you publish it online? How did he make the connection between the VIN and your phone number? (Scammer or not.)

I've heard stories about guys being offered back their stolen mountainbikes like that. In this case we was supposed to send several thousand in cash in with a taxi as courier to some address... he politely declined.

The license plate was visible in the post I made on Facebook when it was stolen, and I put my phone number as contact information.

VINs can be looked up online if you have the plate number and vice versa.

I cleaned my workbench today, for the first time in WAY too long. In doing so, I found some things that I had forgotten about.

In the late-80s, a car rag, I thing it was Road & Track had a picture of a guy cruising in a 2-seater convertible bus. I want that vehicle:



And also, in the early '90s, Porsche ran an ad campaign that really struck my early adult male brain quite hard. It was in all the car magazines of the time, but I haven't found any good copies of it, or even more than passing references to it, on the internet. It was a multi-page spread of cars and each different ad had a different quote from Ferdinand Porsche. I took two of those from the small magazine size and had them blown up and color printed (this was significantly more expensive and time consuming that now... it took going to a printing shop, not just hitting the "Print" button").

For all you young'ns, have some Ferry Porche philosophy:

I passed my bus licence, yay. I'm not a bus driver but I need it for my job fixing trucks and buses so at least I didn't have to pay for it. I did not enjoy squeezing a 52 seat coach around a town centre for an hour.

Hopefully i should get my truck licence in the next few months, only another theory test and 2 more driving tests!
