    a buddy of mine went to mmi in florida. seems to be a pretty cool program. and he now makes like $25 an hour at a harley dealership.

    i think the school is overpriced tho. i forget exactly how much, but it was a good ways up there.

    if he's maken 25 bucks an hour...i dont think his schooling was over prices...IMO
    The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil and no good, nothing but blind pitiless indifference.

    yah, when i looked into it, it was incredibly expensive for that type of school, but i think $25 an hour more than makes up for it lol
