    Been watching you for some time now because I can relate to what you are doing. I left Indiana right after Thanksgiving in 1979 and hit the road in a new ford van with a mattress, pillow, and cover. I kept going until December of 1994. Saw every state, never missed an Indy 500 because I used to build Indy cars, saw Alaska on my own terms, been to Hawaii, and loved every minute of it. We didn't have U-Tube then or I would still be going. Instead I worked one or two days a week at labor pools. On June 24th I will be 72. I just might hit the road again but on a motor scooter. Ck me out on F/B. I have a great life story and am about half done writing it. The title.....Riches to Rags.

    • @MrJest2
      @MrJest2 8 лет назад

      I suspect that was more about the buyer not being interested in being posted on RUclips than anything else. To be honest, that section he drove through, at least, looks fairly decent (nice cars parked, few bars on windows, lack of graffiti, etc.).

    • @bluresponse
      @bluresponse 8 лет назад

      MrJest2 that house has been recorded before. I'm sure Easy E's family still live there and they most likely don't mind having their house recorded. I think Adam was worried a bit but I don't blame him...Adam you should know that in that street you can walk around the block and to that house like you did at the Wonder Years filming location

    Cool to see you in South LA. My hometown is in this area. Hollydale. You would like the abandoned TB/Asylum in Downey as well known as Rancho. It's also where some Rose Parade floats are made every year. Huge abandoned hospital town pretty much. Now where cops & military train. 2 stations on it. I attended the private school adjacent. It's awesome as well. Pius Campus. Our building was an earthquake hazard built before the 60s. Has a Catholic chapel in it. Just awesome and ere.

    The tank bearing the serial you read out is said to be a M60A3 Patton tank on the wikimapia website.Unfortunately I couldn't find out why it is there.Lists of preserved tanks in the USA,which have been complied by military vehicle experts like Neil Baumgardner,don't mention anything special about it sadly.
    I can say that these M60A3s were introduced after the Vietnam war and M60s in general finally retired from the US Forces in 2005.Although by this date the tanks had been serving in a training role.

Thanks Adam for bringing a little of their history together in this video.

    In California especially, refridgerators are a HIGHLY regarded possession! In fact, most apartments don't even include a fridge. You'll be looking over an apartment, then you'll see this rusty pipe sticking out of the wall, and be like 'What's that?' The building manager will go "Its for the fridge." 'Huh?' "Oh you don't HAVE a fridge?!??" They'll say in total amazement, like you just told them that you don't have a spleen. "Well, we DO have one that you can rent, for an additional 20 dollars..." 'Oh, ok, throw it in.' The rules are different out in CA.

    You're never supposed to lay a refrigerator down on it's side or back, it creates air bubbles in the cooling system. Typically the damage is minor and full cooling capability can be recovered by rolling the fridge on all 4 sides a few times to disperse the bubbles. But in some rare cases, the bubbles can burn out the compressor and kill the system.
    But hey, as long as the new owner was cool with it, then they must know what to do.
    Regardless, love your vlogs, been watching daily for months now.

    Dang dood... did you go to Downey again? I lived there for years. Carpenter's lived there as far as I know. Also, that was probably a Sherman Tank... Any idea if it was a "Firefly" Sherman?? They had a bigger gun to try to thwart the new German Tiger Tanks, to which they failed except for the fact the allies had so many more tanks despite their weak armor. (I'm a Firefly SciFi fan). Anyways, boss video. Love catching your daily stuff. Will contribute when I can. Cheers.

    There was a fairly big controversy when Richard Carpenter sold the Downey house a few years back. Fans wanted it turned into a historical site, and the family that eventually bought it endured a lot of online hate for awhile. Curiously, they reported that Richard had sold the house As-Is, leaving behind furnishings, as well as family photo albums, dressers filled with paperwork (copies of Carpenters recording contracts, etc.,) and other personal items. Very strange. Ultimately, the couple that purchased the house held a yard sale prior to moving-in, and got rid of most of it.
    For what it's worth, my sister is a Carpenters fan, and she lived in the area a few years back. She said that virtually every person she spoke to who had known or interacted with Karen Carpenter told her what a genuinely sweet person she was.
