First of all, the "supermodel" girlfriend picture can be absconded from any website. Although I'm well blessed in the wife department, I could claim any number of strippers as my girlfriend if I only post a picture of them. Enough about that.
Secondly, I think that, if I'm wrong on the above statement, you must be either a) incredibly lucky, b) incredibly good looking, c) incredibly charismatic, d) all of the above, e) a charity case for which she is caring, or f) an LA money grabber on the level of Anna Nicole Smith who is hoping that you kill yourself by falling off of your wallet. I'm not a betting man, but if I were to guess, I'd take F. Any takers?

FWIW I work for a Fortune 500 company in the US with the title of "Engineer" yet have no professional training as such -- I have a business degree of all things.
Hell, thesedays you pick up garbage and you're giving the title of Sanitation Engineer

At age 20, unless you were a child genius, you can't have finished an engineering degree - therefore, you're not an engineer. You should think up a new job title.

uhm...
in the US, well, at least in texas, getting the degree isnt enough to call yourself an engineer. I thought it was nation wide, but I could be wrong. It works almost exactly the same here as it does in canada. You have to pass the FE to get your degree (fundamentals of engineering) and then pass the PE (professional engineering exam) to actually call yourself an engineer. You can be legally sued for misusing the title.
The difference here is that you don't have to do 2 years apprenticeship to take the PE. Most of us took it right out of school.

"Guesss who i am ? Im the guy with the Diablo SV that you unauthorisingly took a picture of.....and since your such a little jelous peon like many people i encounter....proceded too just talk alota inaccurate **** about.....because your whole aim was too just try too cut down somebody who you know your not equal too.....and probably never have a life compared too mine....especially at my young age of 25.
First off.....if you had any dignity which you obviously dont....because you have a website dedicated too ridiculing people......you would tell the whole story.
If your a regular at the Autocross events.....you should know that i have attended several times.....and the time and photo you posted are accurate of my first run on a track that i just arrived at....with no walk through....and taking it easy the first couple times around.
If you payed any attention.....im sure you know how my times basically dropped about 10-15 seconds the 2nd time around.....and proceded too get dramitically better of 4-8 seconds for the next several times.
Im probably wasting my time telling you this.....you probably know damn well how much my times improved....and how the things you said was only aimed at slandering me because of your sorry little poor life......and not being honest.
You can bet....its not a good thing too have very rich people who know many other people too be on their bad side.
I challenge you too put up my letter alongside your comments.......in uncensored form.......but you probably wont.....because your whole aim is too talk ****.....and **** is all your full of !
Sincerally,
Mr.Diablo
P.S. Dont bother replying......your email will be deleted as soon as i receive it.....because its probably full of **** also. "

I think discman is leaving out part of the story. I remember coming across a website with the same looking sv on it at an autocross track. The website made fun of the driver because of how poorly he drove, you can imagine the insults slung at a young kid with money and no driving skills. That looks to be his response to the website.

wait huh? I thought it was discman's car? I...don't.......get it...
I hope discman doesn't think I'm the one that made a website aimed at him
if so then he's got it all wrong. The only thing I have related to any diablo is those two pics.
Discman please post a reply so we know what your problem was.

i'm not angry at anyone. I just saw that whole thing on the riceboy website and just posted it. is this the same guy from riceboy? cuz they both have a blue diablo SV with that SV decal on the side and both are in the malibu area(?)...
Yeah(the letter I quoted), that was the diablo owners' resposne to some negative comments about his driving. I though his way of writing as well as AddictiveRx's were one in the same so I figured AddictiveRX is the same guy from riceboy. Also, what are the chances you have 2 exactly the same super cars in the same area?
seems wierd to me.

Well, I'll also mention - 12 year old kids are NOT doing engineering work. You're grossly exaggerating your qualifications in your claim to the title anyway. If you want to call yourself an engineer - go spend 4 years in university.
I'm happy for you for your success, you're very fortunate. I imagine you also work very hard for it, so don't get me wrong, I don't begrudge you anything. However - I and every other legitimate engineer worked very hard to earn the title, even though we generally have much less money than you. I can't see that you need to misappropriate the title that you haven't earned. You wouldn't seriously consider going around calling yourself a lawyer, doctor, or chartered accountant without having received the appropriate education, training and professional certification, would you? It's no different for the engineering profession.

What about the people who drive trains? One engineer to another, jump off the cross so we can use the wood.
