Yep...
 

Now if any of us did use any part of a deceased human being, we wouldn't be able to tell you that we did, now would we? ;)

But really - let's just say that some of our chapters are so hard core that some alumni members LITERALLY pledge A PART of THEMSELVES after they pass on to the chapter eternal...

ERIK, you're not supposed to talk about our "PETS"!!! :D

Re: Yep...
 

Is it their wangs? Do you guys like to use wangs in ritual? How do you preserve the wangs?

-Rudey

LOL...
 

The preservation technique is also a secret... :D

No, but really, I was only half joking about that second part...

Ahhh St. Louis. Home of my alma mater... weird thinking that I have an alma mater.

Any way... we'll have to arrange some sort of trade off... anything you need? catsuits? coffins? I have some very fine altars, half off, only slightly stained...

Does anyone have a Slightly used coffin?

Ours got smahed one ritual night. The Blind folded dude hated the BAAA noise He heard!

Freaked OUt!:rolleyes:

Re: Yep...
 

Which would explain why you guys initiated Ron Jeremy ;)


They probably have skull, too. I mean, that would make sense.

human remains arent that far out there, I've heard of stranger stuff going down.

I bet you're talking about the catsuits made out of actual cats. Yep, I've heard all about it.

that's kinda weird.

I haven't read all 4 pgs of replies, but I got to thinking.... if the chapter ordered these from the HQ catalogue, how on earth can they be real?

Let's pretend this unnamed fraternity has 100 chapters. If each of those chapters needed 3 real skeletons, where would the HQ find 300 real corpses?!

I guess they could do regional initation if they didn't have that many skeletons to go around, but even then, if one chapter closed wouldn't the skeletons go to another chapter in the region so they could still have them for their initiation?

What is wrong with You????

Aint Ya Heard of UPS, FedEx, DHL?

Just have to make sure Ritual Dates are differnt and Do A Shuttle Road Trip!:D

Read the other comments, it wasnt a greek fraternity it was an amish bonnet society that the bones belonged to.

Hmm...
 

Like I said, I was only half-joking about my comment...

To put it in literary terms, when you get a pet animal, you can either get a REAL one or buy a stuffed animal from the company's national headquarters...

What are you talking about?

Read the whole thread. It's a joke (most of it).

not a joke ;-)
 

Anyone know how to keep a unicorn quiet?

For that matter, who knows where I can get a hold of a koala? Our unicorn, ummm, well let's say he needs a friend.

Re: not a joke ;-)
 

Ok, I'm going back to my old trademarked line here:

Crack kills, please note.

If you find a koala, can you get me a wombat?

Not for any ritual.. that would just be sillly.

I've just always wanted a pet wombat...

I wonder if the skeletons were dead or alive before they were put in the coffin? Maybe that's what the fraternity does with the pledges that they decide aren't initiate-worthy.


Side note: Wondering how long it takes for this thread to close.

LOL...
 

Shh... I've heard of a dink vote, but man... That's a heck of a way to get rejected... :eek:

Actually, Beta isnt the only fraternity that has a loving cup... or at least uses the term...

although, based on the confirmed history of beta's loving cup, rhey didnt steal the idea from anyone...

So what goes into the loving cup. Whiskey, wine, or unicorn blood?

BTW, Beta's got a sweet badge.

Re: not a joke ;-)
 

They aren't on crack they are just incredibly weird.

Is this before or after the tanning beds and the mechanical bull?

HARTFORD, Conn. - A Yale University historian has uncovered a 1918 letter that seems to lend validity to the lore that Yale University's ultra-secret Skull and Bones society swiped the skull of American Indian leader Geronimo.

The letter, written by one member of Skull and Bones to another, purports that the skull and some of the Indian leader's remains were spirited from his burial plot in Fort Sill, Okla., to a stone tomb in New Haven that serves as the club's headquarters.

According to Skull and Bones legend, members — including President Bush's grandfather, Prescott Bush — dug up Geronimo's grave when a group of Army volunteers from Yale were stationed at the fort during World War I. Geronimo died in 1909.

"The skull of the worthy Geronimo the Terrible, exhumed from its tomb at Fort Sill by your club... is now safe inside the (Tomb) together with his well worn femurs, bit & saddle horn," according to the letter, written by Winter Mead.

But Mead was not at Fort Sill and researcher Marc Wortman, who found the letter last fall, said Monday he is skeptical the bones are actually those of the famed Indian fighter.

"What I think we could probably say is they removed some skull and bones and other materials from a grave at Fort Sill," he said. "Historically, it may be impossible to prove it's Geronimo's. They believe it's from Geronimo."

Harlyn Geronimo, the great grandson of Geronimo, said he has been looking for a lawyer to sue the U.S. Army, which runs Fort Sill. Discovery of the letter could help, he said.

"It's keeping it alive and now it makes me really want to confront the issue with my attorneys," said Geronimo, of Mescalero, N.M. "If we get the remains back... and find that, for instance, that bones are missing, you know who to blame."

A portion of the letter and an accompanying story were posted Monday on the Yale Alumni Magazine's Web site.

Only 15 Yale seniors are asked to join Skull and Bones each year. Alumni include Sen. John Kerry, President William Howard Taft, numerous members of Congress, media leaders, Wall Street financiers, the scions of wealthy families and agents in the CIA.

Members swear an oath of secrecy about the group and its strange rituals, which are said to include an initiation rite in which would-be members kiss a skull.

Virgin goat blood. That is the way to go.

But how do you know that the goat's REALLY a virgin? Are there tests? Do you just ask it and hope it's not lying?
