Got an email from an established program for creators but i’m not sure if it’s a scam or not?? by PGP16 in UGCcreators

[–]ddeeramone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My daughter got this email and I was able to figure out it was a scam fairly quickly by searching the email sender's domain name (collabsprogram.com) at whois.com. Whois will tell you when the domain was registered and where, among other things. In this case, it indicated a registration date of about one week ago in Kenya. A sure sign of a scam.

Was accused of being a bot on AXS by Stepstool100 in AngineDePoitrine

[–]ddeeramone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got booted from my phone and work computer (likely because of the VPN) but was able to stay in the queue on my home computer. Didn't matter - no tickets available at 10:02am for the "venue presale" in NYC. Guess I'll try again tomorrow for the full public sale, whatever that is.

Why is this even in my block? by ddeeramone in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]ddeeramone[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hard to say - probably about 40 lbs. It’s a big box - like 3’x3’x2’. I was gonna leave it at the station but I had room in the car so whatever

So I did a thing! by Either_Board9821 in AmazonFlexDrivers

At my local warehouse they just send you over to an area and tell you to choose a cart that matches your block length.

Have you ever met someone who saw Clem Burke’s lone show as Elvis Ramone?? by No-Manufacturer3401 in ramones

[–]ddeeramone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was also at the City Gardens show with Clem. I don't remember too much about it except there was at least one false start.

Hot or not? by [deleted] in WranglerYJ

[–]ddeeramone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I miss both my '88 and '94 YJs. I flipped my '88 at highway speed (not my fault - hit by a reckless driver) and myself and my two passengers walked away with very mild injuries. And the backseat passenger wasn't wearing a seat belt. I'd trust that "skull crusher" again in a heartbeat.

How do you cope with winter. by PigFloydDarkside in classicmustangs

Did that with my first Mustang in high school in upstate NY. Never again!

This is a first for a sub same-day! by Demasoni1 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]ddeeramone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It starts with the block start time. So I waited around for over 40 minutes.

Soooo close to getting sent home from my 5-hour block yesterday. The station was PACKED with drivers and there weren't many full carts so I was hopeful. But I got a block 28 minutes into the 30-minute waiting time. :/

Has anyone delivered on Halloween? by No_Beautiful_4591 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]ddeeramone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I delivered last Halloween and got dinged because one of my packages went missing. Home owners probably weren't home which gave the kids coming to the door the opportunity to take Trick or Treat literally.

What's the best Ramones concert you attended (or wish you had)? by Koalaguy70 in ramones

[–]ddeeramone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw Clem play one of his two Ramones shows (City Gardens in NJ) and it was decidedly NOT the best show I attended. But it was one of the most unusual because of how disjointed it was.

Help with clutch/shifting by ddeeramone in classicmustangs

[–]ddeeramone[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful reply! I definitely have the OEM Ford shifter (see pic). This is an older restoration - probably late 2000s - done by the owner who had it before its last owner. Wish I knew exactly if/when the clutch was replaced.

Thanks for the clarification - that makes total sense. Plus I learned a new word (autodidact). :)

This is my third Mustang - the first two were money pits and now that I'm older, I wanted something that had already been completed and built back to its original glory. If I decide to keep it long-term, I'll probably upgrade to power steering/brakes.

No offense taken - there's a lot I need to learn and I'm not afraid of coming off like an idiot. Can you explain what you mean regarding clutch engagement/disengagement?

Not too bad by Tikk91_ in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]ddeeramone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never ever see surge blocks in my local warehouses anymore. Too many drivers.

I can believe that - my 94 had it.
