Hello all glad to be here.

MM!!!

So good to see you over in my neck of the woods!

Welcome, please, make yourself at home. el presidente has joined us as well. A little calmer on this front (esp the rarely use OD).

Shoot your a moderator, I'm calling in the gang.

Will this place welcome the MBshop style open disussion? Their all at benzworld which is not the place they should be IMO.

And how did you know that I'm Medmech? 8)

As for your other possible identity, I've been lurking a bit over on benzworld, helping with the "in response to TLJ reprise thread", and that seems to be the rumor. The vernacular you use seems to be similar, but I have been mistaken in the past.

Hell, bring the gang over. I would love to have you guys over here. Also, Lynn, the other active mod here, is very cool. He runs MBklasse as well and is a pretty steller character.

Hi!

Hey Paul I lets get this party rolling 8O

Hi guys. Gotta say, this site is a helluva lot faster than Benzworld - slooooow server over there.

Damn! I thought I'd found a less-inhabited island for a while. Oh well, I'll just sip on another Hurricane and welcome my buddies over :lol:

EDIT: welcome bud-ettes too :oops:

Hi... in before war starts... :D

Welcome all. It's great to have everyone here.

I'll be back in a couple hours I have been informed that I have some HVAC cooling guys burning my ass.

Hey, I'm here.

I guess I'll be posting at all three sites now.

It's great to be able to keep in touch with everyone, isn't it? :D

Just when I was getting used to Uniwhale... 8)

Where's KV? Wait, I'll get him over here! :twisted:

We'll, I'm here now. Phew...

Looks like this will be "home" unless the OD opens it doors. :)

Thanks for the heads up Med.

Alright! Another deadhead!

Alright! Another deadhead!

Yup, a non-left leaning one at that.

Speaking of The Dead, John Barlow is a libertarian. I read recently that he's voting for Kerry (voted for Bush last time). Too bad. 8)

Mickey Hart lives a couple of blocks from me in Park City. He posted a flyer on the board at our local coffee shop last week looking to carpool to a world music festival. I was tempted just to ride with him for a few hours.

Hi!

Wow, what a ride that would be!! 8) 8)

I read that Phil Lesh is a big car freak. Esp the German marques! Or was it Weir (?) Darn STM.

Nice to see you guys here 8)

B, will be here he's dealing with the Hurricane.

Hope all is well.

Still no KV either...I suspect foul play.

Freakin' feel like one of the lost tribes...

Hi Kuan.

Freakin' feel like one of the lost tribes...

Hey Kuan:

No kidding, I told Howitzer that I felt like a military brat! :)

Je m'ennuie de Medmech, où est lui ? Je me rends à lui.

Alright! Another deadhead!

hell, w126 & I surmise that we were at a coupla the same shows in the early '90s.

Unlike Ted, I have leaned left at many shows (and actually fallen over too) :D 8)

I actually partied with the gentleman who is the father of my S.O./mother-of-my-child at the last show in Chicago. Weird stuff. That was an interesting meeting the folks experience to say the least.

ya'll ever talk about diesels;)?

I ain't got time to keep up with 27 different forums, but I figured I better register the Cap'n before some imposter stole it!! :D

Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name......

Dang, it's ole Phil Macrakin!! :wink:

Or is what's troubling you
The nature of my game.

Hi B!! :P

To B
Or not to B

That was the question.

Hey Guys,

I was given the invite and HERE I AM!

Good to see so many here.

Just following the trend I guess? I was getting lonely at the old site.

Wow this forums faster than Benzworld, I say we make it our new home. I am now a member of 4 Merc forums. But we need to get everyone oer here to liven things up a little.

If you would have asked me that question 3 yrs ago, when I had a slow IT desk job -- no problem. Working full time and school? Notta. When MBshop closed OD, I thought of getting away from the PC until winter. Then everyone moved and being a MBshop addict, why I had to follow! :)

Let's just keep this forum secret from that MedMech guy. All he does is drone on about those damn Ferraris.

I feel cozy here, it reminds me of riding in the back seat of an S-Class.

Only thing missing is...... :)

Well, it IS Friday night - some people have lives.

Not us, apparently :lol:

Doh! Yeah, you're right. I'm at Comcast SportsNet technical directing the newscasts tonight. We're going live at 1:00 am. That sucks!, but it means I can charge the client for overtime. :)

Come to think of it, I'm working tomorow night too. My last day off was Labor Day Monday. I do have Sunday off... and a date with an angel!

Date with an angel? I married one. They're fine most of the time, but sometimes they're a PITA and then you feel guilty.

Howdy All,
There are plenty of threads about refugees from other forums I thought I better get in this one too.
I see Paul S. is here. Someone to talk dogs with. Hey Paul , hows your weiner?¿ :wink:

My weiner? You mean Pee Wee the wonder weenie dog?

Great, but her age is starting to catch up with her. She turns 8 years old next month, and she can no longer keep up with me on my longer runs. We used to run around this meandering path at a park just below my house, about a 2 - 2.5 mile jog, which she has been doing no problem for the past 5-6 years. I changed my routine about 6 months ago and got a little more serious with my jogging habit (invested in some expensive New Balance running gear :lol: ), and she peters out at about the 3 mile mark. :oops: I have to carry her home. :lol:

I still take her out to hunt rabbits every night and to play fetch with the tennis ball (she thinks she's a retreiver), but I can't take her running with me anymore.

The crazy thing is that she seems to understand now, the difference between when I put on my running gear and running shoes, and when I am putting on "take the dog for a walk" all-terrain shoes.

It's just like the Kenny Roger's song, "You got to know when to fold 'em, when to hold 'em, when to walk away, and know when to run".

Howdy Paul,
Couldn't remember Pee Wee's name. How is P.W. doing on the cotton tails?¿ Get any lately?¿
My guys seem to know which shoes are for taking the dogs out :)

She hasn't caught any cottontails in quite a while.

She has chased these rabbits thousands and thousands of times, and they're just too fast for one dog. I think she's bagged two, possibly three, and it was always because of rabbit stupidity, i.e., looking the wrong way when Pee Wee snuck up on them.

If they see her coming, which they generally always do, it's no contest.

Now, give me a pack of weenie dogs, and the odds would be different. :P
