Cats with fraudulent diplomas
Skeptics who believe that a university is actually a diploma mill often prove their point by enrolling their cats in the university's program and seeing whether the cat can get a degree. Some enterprising Wikipedians have assembled a list of several such cats.
Colby Nolan is a housecat who was awarded an MBA degree in 2004 by Trinity Southern University, a Dallas, Texas-based diploma mill, sparking a fraud lawsuit by the Pennsylvania attorney general's office.[1]...

I'm torn between being elated that Hot Young Waiter® came over to chat with me today despite my not being seated in his section and deep disappointment that I missed his restaurant holding a Halloween party (to which he wore a caveman costume!) while I was squeezed into a 24-inch square of bar space against a wall across town.
My fairly productve morning was cancelled out by a fairly lazy afternoon.
I am not doing any of the projects I had wanted to do. OTOH, I have decided that I want a hatchback and I am getting my dad the info to start doing research for what will be the best 3-4 cars for me togo test drive in the spring.
I slept in and then refused to get out of bed, stayed listening to the radio instead. BUT, I did finally get out and make s run to a swim shop where I got a suit that will hopefully last longer than a month (seriously! These supposedly last 20x as long) and she told me that if I end up liking it, they do the bulk of their business in overstock and fitting out teams, so if I order 5-6 suits at once, they offer deep discounts. Like 1/3 the price. So if this one holds up, I'll be doing that.
Then Target where they didn't have catfood, but got other stuff. Finishing lunch and then pool. I really should have walked today, but eh.
I made chicken soup from scratch today. And I do mean from scratch - even the stock and the noodles. Well, spaetzle. I did not raise the chicken.
I lost the morning to a migraine. I'm still having a migraine, but if I don't do grocery shopping today, I go hungry.
are there any grocery delivery options?
I am finally getting going on those projects. apples are peeled, cored and sitting in a bowl with sugar and cinnamon. The dough is ready for them and the oven is heating up. As for the clothing project, I'm halfway through sewing the first of 2 or three pieces of lining into a wool hat.
Two hours of karate down. Showered and trying to convince CJ that leaving the apartment would be a good thing. He normally spends the weekends with his dad, but I have had him the last few and will have him the next few. I didn't realize how much I had gotten used to having quiet ME time.
Busy day at the bookstore today, which is a good thing! Last week was pretty steady, too, but today was just constant with people at the register, so much so that we needed two registers going for all four hours of my shift. We did have a school bookfair with a big turnout of parents and teachers, so that brought it even more people.
Now I get to use the magnifying glass (with an LED light in the handle) to try and figure out what colors of floss I have for my cross stitch project, while I also go through my dvr and try and clean the various PBS documentaries off of it.
