While I gladly claim brotherhood with the late Fred Rogers, I have to say it again...

Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia is a social fraternity for men in music, not a professional fraternity.

Actually, the song is "Keg in the Closet"

This old guitar taught me how to score, right there on the Lambda Chi porch...

I didn't know Sheryl Crow was in SAI. I knew she was a Theta....hmmm. That's interesting.

She is a Kappa Alpha Theta from University of Missouri - Columbia (home of the recent cannon set off of the KA's) Good times :p

She was a pledge, but was never initiated, but hey it's still awesome! I believe that in order for her to do the pagent she quit school, I don't know if this is true or not.

ETA: I haven't heard if Michelle Kwan is or not. I know that with figure skating, training, choreography, endorsements, practice, practice, practice, and competitions and trying to keep up in school probably not. I'll do some digging and try and find out!

He was an 80's wrestler. Around the same time as Andre The Giant and the rest of them. :)

A few include Tim McGraw, Jon Stewart, and Ted Koppel. We've also got tons of business leaders including Col. Sanders and the founder of Chick-fil-a. Almost a monopoly on the fried chicken industry!

When I was 11 or 12, Truett Cathy found my riding boots when I lost them at Camp Winshape. When I went to his office to pick them up, he gave me like a million free sandwich cards. He's a very sweet man and a devoted Christian.

I wonder if people actually read this thing from the beginning?

It's amazing the kind of information you can get just by taking the time to read it from the beginning.

And then it'll be repeated 32452903487239847 times by people who don't read threads from the beginning.

Just a thought.
