Mike Rowe, Drinking Stories, And Open Thread

Mike Rowe Sets College Grad Straight After He Accuses Him of Not Being in Favor of 'Higher-Education'

Mike, I have followed you since the first days of Dirty Jobs and Deadliest Catch, and I am amazed about your attitude toward higher education. I started my working career in the military then as an apprentice plumber and became a journeyman. At night I went to 2 years of community college and then took classes at the university until I had a degree. College allowed me to become a computer infrastructure analyst. I made more money, my body and back were spared.

Kill 'em with kindness....

First of all, congratulations on such a well-balanced resume. I sincerely admire that. Secondly, it's hard to believe you could have "followed" me from the first days of Dirty Jobs and Deadliest Catch, and be so completely mistaken about my stance on the importance of a college education.
