man now we cant talk bad about him any more he is back to see it.
J/K

Glad to ehar you are back even if it only once in a while . I think you will enjoy your school!!
Also hint tha ti found out after the fact get all the tools you can while in school it sux right now for sure But the discounts that most schools give thier students make it well worth it knowing that you will have to do it threw out your career and they will just be higher cost later on. if you can get them and a good box under the school discount go for it.

Hope you do well my frend enjoy your new school and carrer

Welcome back!

I'm with Mickey on the tool thing. I found out the hard way how cheap (in price) it was to get tools with the school discount.

Once you're out of school, about the only discount you get is if you're lucky enough to work somewhere that gets you some allowance for tools.

Hi `Jeremy,
It is great to see you posting again on the MCF.
You are fortunate to be away a school learning about
automobiles, and have your Monte Carlo SS with you.
I wish you the best in school, but I am sure that you will be
a top student : ) Hope that you found a safe place for
your Monte ?
Keep us updated on how classes are going for you,
and what you think of your professors.
Will be looking forward to your future post updates.
Good Luck `Jeremy,
from
The BeachBums & `Space

the monte is kept safe in an underground parking garaje so it is kept safe and warm...i should be one of the top students as long as i dont get distracted by alcohol and women but i havent seem to have a problem with that yet... my professors are interesting, my auto instructor is awesome but my english and math teachers are jokes but i have to take the calsses so i am in them
