Dang. I forgot you were going to be gone for a few weeks. Be safe!

I caved and picked up Forza 4 on the way home. So far I like it better than 3 but there are a few things that I'm a little disappointed about. First one is how much it looks like they used the exact same models for the cars. Would have been nice to see an improvement. Same with the wheels. Looks like it's 100% of the same. Definitely could have stepped it up here. Now the tracks to me look much better and more detailed than before. Driving the cars feel about the same although with all the assists turned off they are a bit more of a handful but that brings a challenge so I like that. Another huge plus to me is that when you level up you get to choose between a few cars as to what you want not a stuck with something crappy.

Yes. Forget saving for the marriage. Your mission should be to buy every freaking car part you can get your hands on now, because in the future, every dollar you spend on your car, you'll have to spend at least $2 on something the wife wants for the house.

Don't even ASK me how much I had to spend to convince the wife that I should buy a turbo kit.

Kevin, you're scaring the crap out of me! Vania and I are in the process of buying a house out here in Cali.....
Professor RoRo! What's up man! Are you engaged?! Congrats on buying a house. I'm going to plan a Nov 2012 trip out to Napa Valley for my wife (our anniversary month), so even though this is more than a year in advance, I'll have to make sure to look you up.

Welcome to the 30s. You'll be married with kids before you know it.

Forza 3 is one of the very few games I've played on my Xbox in the past 3 years (that, NCAA 2010, Tiger Woods 2010, and Marvel vs. Capcom 3). I'd pick up Forza 4, but I don't have the time to play.

I appreciate the offer, though I don't think we'll be needing a place to stay. I will take you up on ideas on which place is better (Sonoma or Napa) and where we should stay. This is far in advance of course, but I like to book my trips relatively early.
