Runs and drives good no issues with it but the interior is a little rough
the paint is faded on the roof and trunk a few scratches and scuffs and the
passenger side mirror is tapped on but it blends in good as you can see in
the picture and the odometer doesn’t work but I think it’s between 185k to
200k miles otherwise it’s a good car 2,000 obo

*Humoresque (Passengers Will Please Refrain) lyrics*
*Passengers will please refrain*
*From flushing toilets while the train*
*Is in the station. Darling, I love you!*
*We encourage constipation*
*While the train is in the station*
*Moonlight always makes me think of you.*

*If you wish to pass some water,*
*kindly call the pullman porter,*
*He'll place a vessel in the vestibule.*
*If the porter isn't here,*
*Try the platform in the rear-*
*The one in front is likely to be full.*

*If the woman's room be taken,*
*Never feel the least forsaken,*
*Never show a sign of sad defeat.*
*Try the men's room in the hall,*
*And if some man has had the call,*
*He'll courteously relinquish you his seat.*

*If these efforts all are vain,*
*Then simply break a window pane-*
*This novel method used by very few.*
*We go strolling through the park*
*Goosing statues in the dark,*
*If Sherman's horse can take it, why can't you?*

Re: [MBZ] OT: What's a Sopwith Camel sound like?

2023-09-27 Thread M. Mitchell Marmel via Mercedes
Skilled Sopwith pilots could use the gyroscopic action of the rotary engine
to enhance turning in one direction, and their skilled opponents
knew this.  I wonder if it would be possible to throw in a ringer by
rigging the engine to turn in the other direction so that it was better
turning in the opposite direction?

Regular checkups...and thorough examination of symptoms.  In my case, back
X-rays for chronic back pain revealed lumps in my kidney and lymph node. CT
scans confirmed the big C, and out they came.  I wound up gutted, and had
drains in my chest and abdomen for a month (bile duct was nicked in the
process, and they had to put a duct stent in) but I DO feel much better
now...  :)

You gotta catch that crap early.  I had a cancerous kidney and lymph node
removed in '19, and I've been clean ever since.  No chemo or radiation
needed.  CATCH IT EARLY!  Thus speaketh the Voice of Experience.
