Aeronautical Science?  I thought his area of expertise was Lean Manufacturing.

Pandering has reached a new level.  And I had thought giving a Nobel peace prize to someone who had done nothing up to that time and later fomented war was the low point.

MSNBC might hire him as an analyst. Even dead, he's got the same cerebral ability as Rachel Maddow.

I recognize that school: Close Cover Before Striking University. Their Fine Arts curriculum was legendary:

I think it would have been more appropriate if he got a degree in Government and Political Science because he liked to steal stuff from people.
