Re: [MBZ] "smart" cars (Not Smart)

My grandmother will be 99 in October, she has told us she'll reach 100, beyond that she has no plans.She's slipping a little these days but honestly she's always been a little wacky so it can be hard to tell sometimes. Curt Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Sat, Apr 14, 2018 at 9:54 PM,

You need a pilots license to climb that. I've spent over 18,000 hours flying lower than your 40 ft chimney crop dusting. Glad you made it down in steps without having to use your parachute. On Sun, Apr 15, 2018 at 10:03 AM, Max Dillon via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > I rented a

Re: [MBZ] OT high achievement yesterday

I'm kind of like that too...I'm not afraid of heights as long as I can keep one foot on the ground. I had a tough time of it when I worked as a steamfitter-rigger on a powerhouse in the Hudson Valley across the river from West Point. As a member of the "bull gang" I often had to climb ladders

Re: [MBZ] OT high achievement yesterday

I have scaled/climbed some of the tallest masts in the CONUS, and been on the top of many a tall building, but if I don’t have a solid surface under me I’m not going. There’s a 1600’ TV transmitter mast about a mile south of me I climbed back in the late 90s in my former career, and whenever I

I'm good as long as I'm on the ladder, what gets tough for me is getting on and off the top of the ladder. Didn't have to do that yesterday, did all the work from the ladder. -- Max Dillon Charleston SC '87 300TD '95 E300 On April 15, 2018 1:38:11 PM EDT, Greg Fiorentino via Mercedes

Re: [MBZ] OT high achievement yesterday

I have found that when I go near such a climb I should always wear a Safety Fall Harness, with a 20 ft rope staked to the ground 100 ft away from the climb the 20 ft fall rope keeps me from making the climb and I keep safe with both feet firmly on the ground.. Just saying.. ;)) [former base

Holy mother of pearl! I’m not afraid of heights as long as I’ve got a solid surface below me, but there is no way I would go up on that. You’re far more of a man than I’ll ever be. No way I would go up a ladder to that height. -D > On Apr 15, 2018, at 1:03 PM, Max Dillon via Mercedes

I had a neighbor who could not climb a 2ft ladder. Was deathly afraid. But he was a B-17 pilot in WW2 and thoroughly loved flying even when the krauts were firing flak at him. Go figure. --R Sent from iPhone > On Apr 15, 2018, at 1:07 PM, G Mann via Mercedes > wrote:
