Saw TWO sets of almost matching vehicles, with near-sequential plates, in two different cities within a couple days of each other.

First one is the weirdest. Two of the same model of minivan, one dark grey and the other light grey, with license plates that had to have been issued days apart. The blurred out parts are the same on both, same with the 2 trucks.

NB: Ontario has sequential plates. If I get ABCD 123 and you are next in line behind me, you will get ABCD 124.

I wonder if one saw the other and parked next to them for fun. Or do they know each other? Or was it just a glitch in the matrix?

More lazy coding in the simulation, saw the two trucks today (vans were on Monday, in a city more than 400km away). Since they are at the same house, I assume they just bought 2 matching vehicles and got them plated a few hours, maybe a day apart. From what I can tell, these two are identical, not like the vans.

Anyway, thought it was weird, thought I would share.

Did anyone actually get tickets to the Doors Open CN Tower tour?

Was ready and waiting. Clicked the link at 10:00:01 and it showed the same password page. Refreshed 100 times, finally got in around 10:04 and it is sold out. What a shit show that was. Can't even see times for the 24th, just the 23rd sold out by the time I could access the page. Bum deal.

Did anyone actually get tickets or even see the date/time selection screen?
