    On being slated to receive The Heritage Award during graduation, which is coming up in less than a month...!

    From what i understand, Jordan's grades weren't so hot when he was a freshman, but he turned all of that around and now he's ready to go to college - on a scholarship! - and is a great role model for folks, everywhere... He's also going to Europe as a band leader, right after graduation...!

    Congratulations, buddy. :)

    Hah your too nice buddy :)

    Its true though. My grades were pretty bad as a freshman...I never really tried too hard. Then I found Fchat, got a ride in a Ferrari, had the chance to live a couple of dreams, and since then Ive been studying hard, and getting straight As. I got into Chapman University with an 18k/year music performance scholarship, touring Europe this summer with one of my orchestras, and then Im off to Monterey for the Concorso! Life is good :)

    Graduation is in less than a month and I cant wait!! Its about time :)

    Nothing special though...You deserve some more congratulations yourself on turning your life around and getting a dream job!

    Give me a call later today if you can. Ive got to tell you about Crystal Cove this morning...check out the pictures too!

    Dang... brings a tear to the eye :) I wonder what Fchat will be like 5 to 10 years from now when all of the young, enthusiastic non-owners are all grown up and have their own collection of Fcars.. and the next round of dreamers pops up. Should be fun to see. Just don't forget about us little people when you become a rich and famous musician performing your Cavallino Concerto at the F70 unveiling.

    Congratulations on the scholarship though.. that's huge! It's great to see how someone can turn something as simple as a car into motivation and success. Where most people see rich snob playthings, you see inspiration. It's a good perspective to have, and I think that kind of mentality will take you much further than you know.

    Btw, since you're getting a free ride to school, have you tried convincing the parents that since they no longer have to pay for school, that maybe they could put any college savings towards a blue gt4? Just a thought :p

    Congrats Jordan on a job well done. I know how hard it is to work back up and how many hours you spend on that "Bass". Who would have ever thought that playing classical music would be your way to college?? My son, as you know, plays both violin in orchestra and tuba in band. He is working toward a scholarship for himself also. You are an inspiration to him......
