One of my favorite movies is "Night Shift," directed by Ron Howard, and starring Henry Winkler, Shelley Long, and Michael Keaton (pictured above). Keaton has been all too absent from movies the past few years or so (just check out his imdb.com resume), so I was intrigued to see a new interview with him on Grantland.com this afternoon.

In 2001, five days after being hired at Notre Dame, George O''Leary resigned from the head coach position. Why? O''Leary stated he had played three years of college football and had a Master''s Degree on his resume, but background checks showed it wasn''t true. Flash forward 11 years, and we have the case of former CEO of Yahoo Scott Thompson, who stepped down when it was learned he had made a false claim on his resume.
