Part of dialog:


Pig: "What does tenured mean?"

Mouse: "It means his university has given him a teaching position for life,
so now he can do pretty much anything he wants."

Pig: "Oh yeah? So what do you want to do, Professor Bob?"

Professor Bob (holding up gasoline tank): "Blow some $@#% up."



Sounds like a real professor to me!
