Hmmm....come to think of it, wasn't there something else he did without that paper? <img src="http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z56/olbroad/thinking.gif" alt="" /> Oh yeah...he had POTUS on his resume', didn't he?

Maybe it wouldn't sound so weird if I could hear the accent. I can see why a company or organization might want something in addition to the homeschool diploma, but that didn't seem to be the issue here. It didn't matter if you had passed other tests, college or the police academy. If you didn't have the right kind of diploma, it was all for naught. That is some mighty fine English there.

A diploma from a home school is just as valid as one from the public school system and probably more so! I know some of the tests I have taken for employment had absolutely nothing to do with the type of job I to which I was applying.
