The fact that your so stuck on putting knowlege to paper yet not about using knowlege to make paper. i have to college at all but iam an electronics engineer, bought my car cash. now how is this? cause i know my mom and dad never bought me anything. and you can ask anyone here if Danbury CT is a rich area? kenosia? so keep on man. seriously iam not sure if its the hate in you or you just dont get enough love at home . its cool i love you man.
as for the thread. read it.
it was never about his age it was about the journey that they took to make it out to AMS as for letting us know how it went on the way and what he went through. You went off that and adlibed your own parts of the story. It is what it is man. Let it be.
edit:: Look Below

I have one question Gary - how in the hell are you an electronics engineer with "to college at all" or is that supposed to be "no college at all"? I'm not jealous of Junior, I'm just amazed that someone can get on the internet, do this marketing thing or whatever it is he does, and make that kind of cash. I, on the other hand, am 35 in the millitary working on aircraft for the past 8 years and bring home a measley 2660 a month. I mean WTF, how can my 8 years of work and long 9-10 hour days not earn me more than Juniors "marketing" crap he does on the internet. Junior has made more on that example he posted above than I earn all year. It just makes absolutly no sense how some jobs like what Junior does or professional sports players make these obsurd amounts of money and people that work what, IMHO, are important jobs like law enforcement, fire fighters, school teachers, and millitary personell make absolute crap for money. We work our asses off putting our lives on the line or teaching the youth of America everyday. Why can't our jobs get paid what we are worth? I don't understand and it's what pisses me off about the society that we live in. All of these other professions get to reap the rewards of a nice, carefree life while other people protect and educate the masses. It's like we give of ourselves so others can "live the good life". Personally, I'm sick of the 9-10 hour days, the moving every 3-4 years, the absolute crap I put up with on a daily basis, and the watches and duty section weekends that I work on top of my 45 hour workweeks. I will be getting out after serving for 10 years to go to UTI and get my ASE master certification. Hopefully I do good enough to get into the BMW STEP program and come out a BMW Certified Diagnostic Technician. I love high end cars and anything that's fast. I know a certified BMW tech makes pretty decent money, it's gotta be more than the pathetic 36 grand I earn now after 8 years on the job. My enlistment ends in Dec 08' - I can't wait to get out, I'm sick of the borderline poverty level pay and I want to start "living the good life" instead of working my *** off just to pay for a car and live with 3 other people in the same house.

Thanks for the continued support , everything is getting better, just hoping everything ends well with the dyno tune and I could drive the car off the shop and around town for a little bit before heading home Friday . Im going from a stock clutch to triple carbon...so I dont know what to expect...a stall or 2? lol
