    He disappeared up the river one day on a mission to terminate a department head who'd gone native.

    The horror, the horror.

    Man, I'd pay big bucks to see helicopters flying in to the tune of Ride of the Valkyries and blasting the fcuk outta Menlo! :pac:

    So what happened? Is he still at college or has he dropped out?

    Wiki:

    After the end of filming of The West Wing, Sheen announced plans to further his education: "My plan is to read English literature, philosophy and theology in Galway, Republic of Ireland, where my late mother came from and where I'm also a citizen".[9] Speaking after an honorary arts doctorate was conferred on him by the National University of Ireland, Sheen joked that he would be the "oldest undergraduate" at the National University of Ireland (NUI), Galway when he started his full-time studies there in the autumn of 2006. Although expressing concern that he might be a "distraction" to other students at NUIG, he attended lectures like everyone else. Speaking the week after filming his last episode of The West Wing, he said, "I'm very serious about it." He once said, "I never went to college when I was young and am looking forward to giving it a try... at age 65!"[10] On September 1, 2006, Sheen was among the first to register as a student at NUI Galway.[11] He left the University after completing a semester.
