I'm waiting for someone to say they have a PhD in "Theology"
Even poofier than normal homos!
To tell the truth, if I could have my time again I'd have done a trade. Tradies earn more than doctors nowadays in Australia. They even have a term for it, "CUBS", cashed-up-bogans, bogans being roughly synonymous for rednecks.
(Ftr, I had to spell-check synonymous)
Question without notice. Why don't you go back and finish your PhD? Then I could call you Dr Fire!
Seriously mate, you are an unstoppable force, please use your powers for good.
Professor Flamer!
Currently BS in Packaging Engineering, and exploring options for grad school. I'm planning on an MBA + something engineering related, and possibly ultimately getting a PhD.
being in the coma has seriously comprimised my degrees to a staggering mumbling of broken phrases.
when I got out of the hospital the university asked me to complete one of my hand built bachelor degree programs, when I opened up what was 80% done it was greek to me even though I had created all of the cirriculum and syllabus. had a hard time dealing with that and had moved on.
I am prefectly content with my retirement and dabbling in local fire organizations and helping here and there.
the local fire dept has been like a famaily to me and taken me back without and question in my old position, I gave them one of my purple hearts

BS in Management.
About the easiest college degree one can attain. I am almost embarrassed by it.

I have an Associates in "Theology".
BSBA-Marketing.
Will start a Master's in Industrial Mgt. this Spring.
AS in Electronic Engineering
BS in Computer Science
50% to my MBA in Information Technology Management (teh suck)
I started my MBA because work said they would pay for part of it. When I left I got a bill from them for the part they had paid for. I was the jackass that failed to read the fine print and left before I had finished 1 year of employment post graduation (as I have yet to graduate).
Note to self: Read the f@cking fine print.

You do more than dabble mate, anyone that lops 200 foot trees gets an arse pucker thumbs up from me!
What college gives that?
primarily a build up two defined BS degrees from several co-op universities to make the final completion at http://www.nafri.gov/
Bush or wild fire fighting is really a full year job nowadays, every year in Australia we have the Americans and the Canadians come down to give us a hand in our fire season and in return the Aussies and the Kiwis go north mid-year and do our best. It's international co-operation as it should be.
BS in Aeronautical Engineering
1/2 way towards an MS in Aviation Safety specializing in Aircraft Accident Investigation

Gots me a book lernin degree in Mechanical Engineering.
I have a BS in economics and finance but my checkbook is not balanced.
Kind of like those home builders whose personal house is all f***ed up.

or a contractor who's house is falling apart
or a mechanics who's rigs never run
or a firefighter who's property is a fire trap
and on and on
It was the big Sydney fires from 6-7 years back when I first saw those things. I remember they interviewed this bloke who said something like "one of those crazy helicopters flew over and dumped its guts all over the place and saved the joint"...... made me laugh.
They love america too much to participate in this socialist BS.
Speaking of BS, I gots on in biochemistry with a minor in analytical chem.
Got most of an MSE in chem engineering but after a year and a half I was ready to strangle kittens.
They were busy as hell last week with a fire in Medford and one in Ashland. Only lasted about 36 hours, but the whole valley was smoked out. Those big ass birds get the job done.
Reedin' and ritin' degree in accounting.
The small obstacle between me and a masters is tuition. Once I get that figured out...

I have a BS and MS in Mechanical Engineering.
I hear that brother. My low oxygen levels and 3 weeks in a coma certainly didn't move me any closer to a Mensa membership. I used to be a voracious reader before my accident but now its difficult for me to sit down and follow any difficult book for too long.
Redundant?
As for me I'm gonna lower the average by announcing I have only a technical degree (aviation maintenance) and the AA that accompanied it. If what Valve Bouncer says is true I must consider a move to Australia.
At the trade show last year, our booth was right beside one of them. They are huge (for a helicopter). It was "The Incredible Hulk"
edit: here it is

Nice, BA in Political Science with Economics as an Allied field. Also got a Business Certificate at the same time, which I think is about the same as a Minor.
Oh what. Just cuz you go to harvard you don't need any sort of pre med credentials? Man all those kids I went through chemistry school with are gonna be pissed.
