Where are your rentals?  In Slummavull of Meffuh?  I had a young lady friend at 
one time who lived right there close to campus, and I almost rented a place 
from an old Italian couple right across the street from the playing field. 
Turns out a buddy lived about 2 doors down from where the young lady lived, but 
a few years earlier.

[MBZ] Millenials are not all hopeless!

2018-05-29 Thread Dimitri via Mercedes
Ok so yesterday while tending to my Tufts student rentals, I see a well 
patinated dark olive green 280SEL 4.5 with palomino leather interior on a car 
trailer in the the Tufts Fletcher School parking lot. I pull in behind it with 
my 78 240D and encounter two young guys. One of them starts telling me how he 
just bought it for only $1700 and trailered it down from Searsmont, Maine. 
These guys were no more than 20 and one of them a Tufts undergrad. They were 
very interested in my 240D and excited to see that it has a 4 speed manual 
(most millenials don’t know how to drive a manual) and said that they had seen 
it on the street earlier. One of them, the now new owner of the w108 found it 
on Craigslist and drove all the way from Southern CT to pick it up. They were 
both extremely knowledgeable about vintage Mercedes and together tore apart and 
rebuilt an m116 in a 380SE at age 17. The guy plans to megasquirt it. I told 
him that a good friend of mine had already done so on an m117.

The car came with a lot of paperwork and the original bill of sale from 1972 
sold to Peter Gregg of Jacksonville, FL. He googled the guy and discovered that 
Gregg was a famous race car driver! 

Refreshing to see young kids with a true passion for old Mercedes!

29 which puts me to the Boomer side of GenX which is a bit off, I'm rather on 
the millenial side of GenX actual age-wise. Maybe I should get a tattoo.

I saw that but it still doesn't mean anything to me.

Meanwhile you almost killed my buzz for getting my mini-split system 
running in the addition.  I now have heat!  I have had it all installed 
save for connecting the lines and charging the system, and was waiting 
to get my new power lines run, but then I got thinking I could take 
power off my temp pole box and run it to the system.  The box is like 
those at RV camps apparently, 2-20A plugs and a 60A 220V plug.  I bought 
a plug, had some heavy wire, bought a breaker box and put in a 30A 
breaker off that 60A line, then ran some line to the shutoff at the 
outdoor unit, disconnecting the wire from my new panel.  It is kind of a 
bodge, but the inspector was by the other day and said it was OK for 
some temp temps.  I had an HVAC guy come by to get it going (so I can 
get the warranty on the units), and now I have heat!!!  No more propane 
heater to get it warmed up on cold mornings.  I am so excited!


LG 36k BTU mini-split heat pump with 4 head units (2-12k, 2-9k), I can 
barely tell the outdoor unit is running, the indoor units are mostly 
silent even at high fan speed.  Awesome system.

2013-12-17 Thread Randy Bennell


According to their rating, I am a dinosaur. I scored a 4.
I don't have a tatoo. I read the newspaper etc.
I fell into the pre baby boomer group.

It reminds me of a similar thing a few years back relating to vehicles. 
I was driving a Toyota 4Runner at the time and the test told me I was 
way to old to be driving a young person's vehicle.

I thought that a bit odd.
