After chiseling away at this for years, I'm pleased to announce that on Friday I graduated with honors with a Master's degree in Business Administration from Florida Atlantic University! So now in addition to swinging like a monkey on crack, I am now officially an Evil Corporate Drone.

Right on Mr. MBA! That's quite an accomplishment. I considered going the MBA route, but ended up going with professional certification programs. I kind of wish I had gone the MBA route instead!

Congrats, I'm sure you earned it! I should go back to school and get my chemistry degree. Some physics wouldn't hurt either. I hate school though.

I think this should be moved to the Music, Musicians, and Musicianship section! What better way to improve your networking, marketability, and understanding the music business? Congratulations again my friend. What you have accomplished is no small feat.

I just woke up and read your post three or four times before I realized you were NOT the newest member of the Miami Heat.
Congrats, sir!
