Thumbs up

I didn't want to start a whole new thread so I thought I'd stick this here...Last night I was watching re-runs of "Whose Line" and after they did a skit where one of the guys was a fraternity brother, Drew Carey gave a shout out to DTD.

one more Kappa!

I was watching "The Other Half" yesterday, and they had Kate Jackson as a guest. She has appeared in more television series than any other woman. She was Sabrina on the original "Charlie's Angels," which she essentially invented! She was talking with Aaron Spelling and making up a series as she went along. The "angels" part was inspired by a painting over his desk, and the whole bit about them never seeing Charlie...she saw a speakerphone on his desk and said "And they only hear him...um...over speakerphone."

I was so sad. I should have skipped work to be in their audience so I could meet a famous sister.

Neither TriDelt or Chi O claim her as member.
Heather Locklear, risque???? The woman who was once married to Tommy Lee and is now married to Richie Sambora-could she be a "party girl"???? I have never seen the "famous" Tommy Lee and Pam video, but from what I understand...Tommy is no choir boy But, apparently he is quite a man among men, to say the least...

Delta Burke controversy

I think the reason several groups have "wrongly" claimed Delta Burke as one of their members (when she supposedly went to school in London and herself said she was never a member of any house) is that her character on "Designing Women," Suzanne Sugarbaker, was an Ole Miss Pi Phi. If this is a repeat, sorry...I just didn't read all the way through.[COLOR=deeppink][COLOR=deeppink]

In my chapter we werer told that the founder of Weight Watchers was a Sigma Kappa, as well as the creator of Barney. One I have heard and have not confirmed and maybe someone can help me out is that Dr. Seuss married a Sigma Kappa.

The dumbest thing I ever heard/saw was in a Famous Greek section in a greek clothing catalog, it said that the POPE was in a fraternity.

The only Famous Delta Sigs that people would know about is Brother Micheal Shannahan, coach of the Denver Broncos, Brother Micheal Billoti, head coach at Oregon University, and Brother Jim Bouton, who wrote the controversial book "Ball Four", detailing the life of a baseball player back in his time.
