    Yes, very much so.

    Perhaps why you are so good at getting people riled up.

    Nope...

    Masters in Psychology... (I think I said that a few pages back)

    Kind of weird huh.

    I was 16 when I when I received my AS from a community college...

    BA from UCSB at 19... Took me until I was 30 to actually complete my Masters though.

    Started working as a non-degreed engineer at 21...

    Hmmm...
    Okay...

    But I'm not Mason...

    He's the Fabricator Guy...

    I'm Colegrove the BMW guy...



    I don't have an Image of John Mason handy though...

    EDIT: here's one of him with his wife:

    But "them" (or "those" if you prefer) in general that could benefit from "My" handy work...

    "I" Don't think "I'll" quit though because things are moving briskly in the market for these toys.

    However...

    I'm pretty sure that all the drinking and drugs 'till I was 26 knocked my IQ down to low average...



    Nope... It's an obsession.

    Like balancing a ball bearing on a razor blade...

    Nearly impossible...

    Pointless...

    But you just know you can achieve perfection...

    Like chasing that first high... If you know what I mean.

    I don't do e30 work for the money...

    But I wouldn't do it for free either... At least not on your car.
