Nonranma:  Riding Bean/OMG
scene: A hotel room in Chicago. Bean and Toshiyuki Aoshima are talking.

Aoshima: I need the best driver I can find to beat Keiichi Morisato. I
will hire you to race for me.

Bean: No way, I ain't no race driver.

Aoshima: I will pay you twice your standard fees.

Bean (thinking): It has been dull lately.
Bean (talking): Ok, but your paying me three times. Once for the drive,
once because I'm not a race driver, and once more just because I said
so. Oh, by the way, my car comes also, and your paying shipping.  

I am not going to do anything with this. The attention to detail
(especially the automotive ones) the race sequence would require is more
than I can do.

It should be noted Bellandy's power is limited, and having one of
Aoshima's schemes start to go right for once, could make a story.

Yes, this would make an interesting story indeed! I'd like to see this one
myself, so anyone who -does- decide to do it, send it to me!

Ranma idea

While thinking about the Ranma timeline I noticed something.
3 years ago the principal went to Hawaii. This was after years of
enjoying 
tormenting his students. I do not believe the manga says how long he had
been tormenting them, but I think you can assume years.

Why did he go to Hawaii then, not before?

I think I can shed a little light here: The principle went on a three-year
trip to America for educational purposes, and it's just a Takahashi-style
twist that he spent the three years relaxing in Hawaii ^_^
