It's been a good week to be the Vulture. On the heels of Kyle's BA, Tyler has an achievement of his own for Papa Vulture to be proud of. Yesterday we found out that Tyler has completed the requirements to receive his AA in Business Administration from Frederick Community College.

While an AA might seem like a trivial thing, you have to understand how Tyler got there. At age 16, Tyler decided he'd had enough of the BS that is High School. He wanted to get out into the world, and he wanted it NOW. He took and passed the GED and enrolled at FCC the next semester. Despite having to take some remedial classes to "catch up" due to missed HS work, Tyler finished his AA in 2.5 years. Oh, and he worked nearly full-time through most of that 2.5 year run. Tyler does NOT mess around.

Now he's on to Towson University as a 19-year-old Junior. His plan is to become a CPA, and I think he'll be a very good one.

TJ, I love you and I'm VERY proud of you. Well done, son.
