There's a martial arts supply store near where I'm staying that, according to their website, has those straight swords for $35 which isn't too bad.

I just checked my local one and they rent swords, I'm sure SF has to have something like that.

BTW my boss is heading to Road America as we speak, unfortunately I won't be going this time. GnarlyCharlie4u posted:This is probably the best thing about working IT. I can hate my job and not ruin any of my passions. I shouldn't complain really, everything about my current work arrangement is great. Flexible hours, easy going owners, I'm doing dope poo poo with all types classic cars. The trouble is I don't know if there's going to be enough work 20 years from now, not to mention the horrors of running my own shop. I don't know where things are going to lead but then again I never intended to make a living working on cars, let alone specializing in classic British cars.

Thanks for the tip!

If you end up needing to go to Chinatown, check out Grant St. It's the touristy part of Chinatown and you'll find what you need.

I was telling somebody younger how impressed I was with how useable pictures are from my camera from ISO 400 even to 1600. He was so unimpressed. I feel old.

I think I'd enjoy rebuilding this boat a lot more if every session wasn't 4 hours of 3 stubborn assholes (myself included) arguing about how and where to smash rivets and 4 hours of smashing the loving rivets.

Boston's Chinatown is like, 2x4 blocks. But also home to this vaguely automotive-related video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI580-MXFP4&t=10s and that one scene in The Depahted.

Rhyno posted:Neat! I've not been to SF so I was unaware. NYC C-town was pretty excellent. Chicago's is lame as poo poo. Sydney is rapidly moving from having Sydney Chinatown to actually just straight out being China. I rather like it personally - watching a city moving from a tiny minority Asian to second largest and growing far faster than English / Australian population is amazing (approaching, might even be more as the figures from 2011 are badliy lagging the population shift that going on). I think that Chinese just by itself will become the second largest ethnical background this decade behind Australian - and very likely we'll go majority Asian within 15 years. And that I think will be a good thing.

Last I saw, he said I was right and he got plastidipped the center caps and put on some cheap stickers in the center. It didn't seem contentious at all. And believe me, I know contentious. Edit: Nevermind. It wasn't the de-escaladed thread, from the looks of his post history, he got butthurt in the vroom thread and went on a "delete all my posts" rampage. Now I've got to go catch up on the vroom thread, sounds like that's been a shitfest from jump. meatpimp fucked around with this message at 11:44 on Sep 16, 2016 |

So I put my guitar up on craigslist, and the first reply I heard was unfortunately from an out of state scammer. I wonder if its all just an automatic script that contacts every item over $1000 because it seems he didnt think something through:quote:Hello there,Regarding to your post on CL.I am interested,i would have prefer calling but I'm deaf, If available text me back and let me know Dannis.. Hi I'm deaf and buying guitars on the internet I'm definitely not fake.

Aww man, my friend is going to look at a modded for speed FB RX7 next weekend and I'll be miles away in Scotland when he does. I'm pretty sure if it's as good as it looks in the photos he'll grab it which means I'll have to wait to get a drive in it. :'(

We've had other threads like that in the past where AI unanimously bashes car salesmen and then one or two actual salesmen come in and try to argue. Never works out well for them, I wonder why. [e] Haha, he went through every one of his posts in that thread and edited them out even though most of them were quoted anyway, what a moron.

Wow, is THAT what happened? Sheesh. It's a shock that car salespeople don't fully anticipate that kind of animosity towards their positions.
