**Brown University Professor and Doctor Deported to Lebanon Against Court Ruling: A Comedy of Errors**
In a plot twist that could only be described as a bureaucratic sitcom, Dr. Farouk Al-Mansour, a distinguished professor at Brown University and part-time magician, was deported to Lebanon last Tuesday, despite a court ruling that he should remain in the U.S. “I guess the judge’s gavel was just a little too heavy for the immigration officers to hear,” Dr. Al-Mansour quipped as he boarded his flight, waving goodbye to his students, who were too busy Googling “How to get a PhD in deportation.”
The incident unfolded when Dr. Al-Mansour, known for his groundbreaking research on the effects of caffeine on procrastination, was mistakenly flagged as a “dangerous coffee bean.” “I always knew my research would brew up some trouble,” he joked, sipping a latte that he smuggled through security. “But I didn’t think I’d be sent back to Lebanon for it!”
In a bizarre twist, the immigration officer responsible for the deportation was later found to be a former student of Dr. Al-Mansour, who reportedly said, “I just wanted to see if he could pull a rabbit out of a hat and make my paperwork disappear!”
As Dr. Al-Mansour settles into his new life in Lebanon, he’s already planning a lecture series titled “How to Get Deported and Still Make It to Class.” “I’ll be back,” he promised, “but only if they let me bring my coffee.”
Meanwhile, Brown University has announced a new scholarship in his honor: “The Caffeinated Deportation Fund.” Because if you can’t laugh about it, you might as well brew a cup of coffee and cry!
