Re: [MBZ] This weeks storm of the century

[Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes]

Been raining fairly hard off and on, was 72F this afternoon still about  66F 
now. Windows open, it’s nice to get a fresh breeze and listen to the rain on 
Dec29. I think it’s going to be fairly warm the next few days too, love it. I 
actually got kinda hot riding to the beach this morning... so far we haven’t 
had “winter” which I’m fine with. 

Noticed a bunch of shrimpers all lighted up tonight at the dock across the 
creek on Wadmalaw, the catch has been pretty good the last week or two, big 
ones. I’m going to the dock tomorrow get a few pounds. Saw a coupla boats off 
the beach this morning so the catch will be fresh.

Yes, that does look like a dual carburetor synchronizer.

38north is rather proud of his tools. He says, "Condition is Used," but
makes no comment on whether they work on not.

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

 Yup.The downside is we waste a bunch of heat to the outside.
At some point I need to dig around the foundation to add some plastic to keep 
away water. I'm thinking at the same time to add a layer of foam insulation to 
keep some of the heat in.

Ah, now I understand. Sort of like a Russian fireplace, built with lots

Re: [MBZ] This weeks storm of the century

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

 We've got a one story house with the wood stove in the basement. The stove can 
heat the whole house but the basement walls absorb a considerable amount of 
heat when they're cold. So if the stove hasn't been lit for a couple days, its 
been warm so we haven't had it going, it'll take a couple hours before the 
basement warms enough to let the house really warm up. 

By lighting the fire before the power goes out we start with a warm basement. 
Often if its not really cold I'll only light the stove every other day, the 
basement stays pretty warm for about a day after having a fire.

Nope. We are at 25°F with an expected low of 7°F and wind chill values as
low as -4°F, but, as is typical in New Mexico, no precipitation.

No ice here. Rained all night. Was only 49°F when I got up this morning.

[MBZ] This weeks storm of the century

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

We're projected to get .1 to .5 inches of ice. The weather guessers are losing 
their minds. "Tree limbs down, power outages."
I've been working on our little generator anyway, cleaned the carb which got it 
starting better. Today I got it to output power, I'd left the neutral cable 
unplugged from the outlet. Mostly if the power is out I'll use it to recharge 
the old car battery we use to run the inverter that gives us lights and 
computer.
Kerosene was on sale at the hardware store so I picked up a few gallons. I've 
got a few Aladdin lamps (and one nice old B) and of course Coleman stuff. In 
a pinch it could also go in the car or the house boiler.
We hauled about a quarter of a cord of wood into the "wood room" which is 
really the basement walk-out. We'd have done that anyway, thats about 2 weeks 
of wood for us.
Finally we got a fire going in the stove, its easier to keep the house warm 
with the stove than it is to start from a cold stove.
So I guess we're pretty well ready, anybody else make storm preparations?

Re: [MBZ] The hand of God has only ever truly touched two things- Diego Maradona and this car

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

For an R129, it is a very nice one and appears to have been well maintained. 
Only strike against it I see is the wear on the driver’s seat side bolster.

Price is a stretch for an R129, but it’s certainly one of the best I’ve seen in 
a long time. Definitely BaT material.

Seller's Description

The hand of God has only ever truly touched two things- Diego Maradona

themselves this example of Mercedes finest truly has led a noble 
existence. Sheltered by the aura of the pointed star the paint has never 
been exposed to rain, sun, bird poo, or the grimy hands of the masses. 
This aura (and the wind screen) provide such protection from the 
elements that top down motoring will not disturb a single piece of your 
flowing Fabio mane. The depth of the paint is so deep you could swim in 
it as you would the finest ambrosia. The interior has been wrapped in 
the finest velvet from day one (of creation). The leather is as like the 
cows still roamed the fields of Elysium. The wheels are so perfect that

Re: [MBZ] OT - Win10 Va Win 7

[Mitch Haley via Mercedes]

I've bought SSDs that were thin, with plastic spacers to make them thick. 
If you need the thickness to make the connectors line up, leave the spacer on. 
If your drive bay is thin, or if the drive is screwed from the side and 
thickness doesn't matter, you can remove the spacer.
