Off Topic Do any forumites live in Japan at present?

[Aussie Mark]

I'm looking to buy a used bass (non-EBMM) from a store in Japan that does not ship internationally. I'm wondering if there are any forumites living in Japan who would be willing to be the intermediary in buying and shipping this bass for me? I'll make sure you are well rewarded for your time and effort, as well as covering all shipping and Paypal costs.

Also, please rescue that guy who was trying to get his kids back.

I mean, if you have time and any hostage rescue/jailbreaking skills.

Not me. Although I was a hostage once, if that helps. My jailbreaking skills on that occasion were to phone the US embassy and have them arrange for the riot police to bust me out of the situation. That, and giving the Chief of Police some cash in a brown paper bag

I remember that.

Makes me miss working in the embassy.......wait, no, I was thinking of something else.

Reminds me of the time I went to a Christmas party at the Nakatomi Plaza and a group of German radical activists burst in endevouring to steal $640 million in bearer bonds from the vault... I fought Alan Rickman and some buff Russian ballet guy... after a few explosions and destroying an entire floor, I pretty much saved everyone.

Something eerily simlar happened the following Christmas too... wait... yeah, I remember that.

Anytime you can make a Nakatomi Plaza reference, it's funny. Well played!
