Now we've seen everything! A cat earns her GED Diploma on the internet!

MSNBC reported Friday that in an effort to expose diploma mills, the Better Business Bureau of Central Georgia decided to enroll “Oreo” in an Internet GED program. Hey, it’s for the sake of her future too.

The 2-year-old black and white cat, full name Oreo C. Collins, did quite well in her Internet based GED courses. Her owner wasn’t surprised at all to hear his cat earned mostly A’s.

The president of the BBB of Central Georgia, Kevin Collins, who rescued her from a precarious situation when she was just a kitten, said: “Oreo’s a really smart cat.”

I hope not. He thinks he is everything already.

I remember when the tax reform act came into play during 1986.

Alot of the dependents on returns we did suddenly disappeared.

That's before my time so I can't speak on it lol

Edit

Just found the tax issue lol, I can see how that would put a damper on tax fraud requiring social security numbers.
