my ex, who i've suprisingly remained semi- friends with :-/, seems to get excited when he sees five pointed crowns (he'll even count them out loud, i guess to make sure theres five??). he also thought it was the coolest thing when he saw one of the local judges on tv wearing a five pointed crown ring (he just "knows" she's a zeta). and finally just the other day he told hopes his (future) daughter(s) to be zeta(s)

-you see crowns EVERYWHERE that you never saw before
-you doodle crowns & strawberries on everything when you're bored
-you switch your ZTA car magnet from car to car, depending which one you're driving (this drives my parents insane!)
-strawberries just seem to taste better
-you've considered getting, or have, a crown tattoo
-you have the DJ $crilla ZTA song set as your ringtone

I'm not even a Zeta, but...

How do you say "tau"? Does it rhyme with law or now? I say it rhymes with law, but I've heard it both ways and have gotten into arguments with people over the right way to say it.

Also, a crown with 5 points just looks "right". It has to be an odd number, to have a point in the center. 3 is not enough, 7 is too much. 5 is just right. Maybe the Hallmark crown (based off of ZTA ironically) is just the prototypical crown.

Tau is pronounced T-A -U
I mean really that's how it sounds.
Doesn't rhyme with now.. I guess law would be the best.
Many people say it like they are saying tow-el, but from what I have heard from my fellow sisters it is not TA-OW

this is what they taught us (tau-ght) -> (that's another good one) in New Member classes.

I am curious also what other people think. But I hope that helps. I got into an argument with some LXAs (whom I adore) and made them recite to me the greek alphabet -they got to tau and were like oohhhhhhh I get it now! DUH!
