HARRISBURG, Pa. - The Pennsylvania attorney general's office Monday sued an online university for allegedly selling bogus academic degrees — including an MBA awarded to a cat.

Trinity Southern University in Texas, a cellular company and the two brothers who ran them are accused of misappropriating Internet addresses of the state Senate and more than 60 Pennsylvania businesses to sell fake degrees and prescription drugs by spam e-mail, according to the lawsuit.

Investigators paid $299 for a bachelor's degree for Colby Nolan — a deputy attorney general's 6-year-old black cat — claiming he had experience including baby-sitting and retail management.

Wasn't there a story not to long ago about another outfit like this that was busted, and turned out some rather prominat people had degrees from the fakers?

I should search that one down.

What a travesty.

12. Big f'n deal. So they gave a cat an MBA.

Harvard gave a chimp an MBA, remember?

Besides, since Colby is a black cat, they'll claim he got in under affirmative action </sarcasm>
