[QUOTE="Firewalker, post: 8723541, member: 676743"] Try having a father who gave you a bunch of expensive addictions like..Computers...Electronics...Boats...Jet Skis...Dirt Bikes...4-Wheelers...Snowmobiles...Fast Cars...I was 8 years old and he made me without the use of a compressor redo a Chevy 350 from tear down to putting it back together not so it would run but turn over by hand along with set the valves and all that other garbage. I had all those toys growing up on the Kankakee River but anything I had, I had to do the upkeep on it, pay for my own gas and any repairs if I broke it. When I was 12 I went through Coast Guard and Power Squadron classes to certify me to operate a boat on my own. Since I was on the insurance I had to have that otherwise our rates would skyrocket,lol. I know I got lucky with him teaching me a lot but damn...all these expensive addictions! Even used to race at Chicagoland Racetrack. But yeah most computer guys end up addicted to it if you end up doing the stuff we are doing. I have calmed down with it some and only do an upgrade every 3-4 years.
