Okay, this one wasn't on a resume, but I have to share it anyway.  When I first met my husband in 2002, An Egyptian, he had never been to the US.  We were putting together his resume (they call it CV over there), and I was typing it out for him.  I asked him what his degree was specifically so that I could put it on the resume.  This was his reply:  "I have a Bachelor's degree in Hotels and Terrorism."  (Of course, he meant Tourism)  Shocked  Have I mentioned that he's a Muslim?
