Darn! No GLO has claimed Lisa "where's my diaper" Nowak yet!


Double Darn! According Wikipedia, "She was the first Italian American woman to go into space, carried a National Organization of Italian American Women gold pin during her flight and is Catholic." Her maiden name was Caputo, fwiw.

It was pinned to the flag on the moon, but the Lunar Winds blew it off.

Then a later astronaut accidentally kicked it up in the air, where, being so small, the moon's gravity wasn't enough to hold it down, so it floated off into space.

After several years of floating, it re-entered the earth's atmosphere, again, being so well constructed and small, it didn't burn up.

It landed in the Australian Outback, where it was found and picked up by a freelance production assistant on a Crockodile Dundee movie who took it to the Sydney Olympics and traded it to a pin collector, who couldn't read the Greek Alphabet, and was dissapointed when he found out it didn't belong to the Serbo-Croation Olympic Bobsled team (who somehow ended up in the Summer Games by mistake -- but due to a lack of competition, won a Bronze Medal) and then listed it on E-Bay.

Unfortunatley, it was purchased by a Veterinary Dentist who didn't realize what he had and melted down for use as a doggy filling.

It is now in somebody's pet's bicuspid -- somewhere in Cleveland, I think.

Doesn't that sound reasonable? At least as reasonable as pinning a sorority pin on a flag in those space suit gloves.
LOL!!

******************
I don't know about the Library of Congress, but if someone is determined to expend enough effort, time, energy and perhaps bribery money, they can get certain ritual material that's generally reserved for those specifically inducted into a fraternal organization. It should be pointed out for those individuals, that a ritual will mean nothing to,and do nothing for,a non-member, just as the Gospel will do nothing for a none-believer.

As for what's on the moon, we can always start a rumor list of GLO-related material that was taken there and/or left there.

We've touched on the subject before, but I'd be interested in learning the GLO affilitations of some of our most famous astronauts.

On a political note, what are the GOL affiliations of the various candidates running for President? Hillary went to Welsley, where I don't think think they have sororities. Was she inducted as an alum later in life?

Thanks, porkfriedrice for your comment. It was entered as a "good wishes" or "have a good day" sort of ending to my posts. I've seem some rather trenchant signatures, so I felt like balancing it a bit. I guess I should say something like "Use liberals for target practice," or "I don't break for Right-to-Lifers, or "Tom Earp fathers Space Alien mutants," or something like that, but from now on I'll just sign my name and be done with it. Thans again.

Why not just edit your signature to be your signature?

I just come on here now cause I'm stuck here in Tucson for summer school, it cuts the boredom. Seriouslly, grow up and get a life....
Yep. Definitely not mourning her in the GCers long gone away thread.

That thread is how I found this one. When I couldn't stop laughing it was time for a bump.

'Cause CAPT Lisa Marie Caputo Nowak is an '85 graduate of 'Canoe U', aka the U.S. Naval Academy. Much more selective than any GLO! (And there ain't any GLOs except for professional and honorary.)

All in good-natured jest... just like some will call the Air Force Academy 'The Zoo' and West Point 'Castle Greyskull'.

<-- Air Force veteran (no, I didn't go to the Zoo!)
