My high school diploma looked like that about 5 minutes after I got it too.

I tried to open it figuring it had to have something extramly valuable inside like a gold lining given the amount of time and work I put into getting it.

Nope. Just one sheet of paper.

Roffo ripped apart the certificate when he discovered that his long thought friend and owner John was not at all dog obedient.

Now, now, let's be kind here.

After all an ITT diploma is probably LESS useful than an Obedience Training certificate is these days.

That's only because there was no question on the history of Ancient Japanese Artwork.

Otherwise, he would have 'nailed' it.

He's small, he's black, he's mad as hell, he's.....a Poodle with a Mohawk!

After reading this poem the kids gave our Poodle a Mohawk. It seemed to fit his personality to a "T".

The question was not whether he ate all the birthday cake but where did he put it all?

Even after earning this diploma, I still cant get a job. But I still have to face 20 years of payments on my student loan. Makes me just want to lay down and die!
