rocket scientist.

(Kathy and Robert Sproles)

Congratulations to my life-long friend, Robert Warren Sproles, on the completion of his Doctorate in Physics from UALR. He successfully defended his dissertation on Monday, so now it's official. I can say I actually KNOW a rocket scientist. He already said he doesn't want me to call him Dr. Sproles (of course - I would expect nothing less from him), but I think I will just for kicks.

I tried asking once what his dissertation covered. He didn't answer my question because he knew I wouldn't understand, but I am still very proud of him.
