BoodleBoy, first off, my appologies. That is called having a Brain Fart by an oldster!
ukrsindicat, never under estimate what new and old Alums might want to do. When We get together as a body, We are one. Granted if some of the more mature Alums do some of the things, it hurts like hell the next day and takes longer to recuiperate!
I remember a Regional Conference I attended @ 8 years ago, and got rug burn on the knees from diving for something to beat one of the younger Brothers. I got it and man did I pay for it later!
But got a late call the last night telling me to get my ass up to another floor. God what a night that was to behold and what a fun time. Age did not matter, it was just being Brothers.
Just remember, it is not just the Newer Alums, but those like myself and many others on GC and in each Greek Organization who keep the drive alive. Just make sure there is a continuity when Brothers Graduate.
Trust me, I know as We did not do that and have been trying to correct it for 15 years now.
