All for naught since my 2nd cat will exploit her power of reading upside down!!!

YESSSSS!!!  THE ANSWER TO ALL MY "TEACH CATS TO READ" RANTS!!!!
Also, since this is a school thread, I'm a gonna toss in my couple o' cents worth.  
Go to school.  Finish school.  I too was a "I'm too smart, bored, blah-blah-blah" and I am all those things.  Took me a while to figure out that a degree doesn't measure your intellegence, it PROVES your ability to learn.  Think college is boring, do what I did.  Make a bet with your friends/folks/whoever that you can get a legitimate 4 year degree in under 3.  Nothing shines in an interview better than, "It only took me two and a half years..."  There's no better way to prove how quickly you learn.
