From Brother Matt at Millersville to Brother Chris at U. Alberta.

Next in the wings is Brother Matt, from Hanover!!!!

God dang, boy is this Book Getting around!!!!

Remember, since I am the Maturest Brother on GC, I plan that 100 Years from now that it be placed in IHQ to be talked about for Years to come for All of the Brothers that read, and signed it!

Well unless, it is still being passed along and signed!!!!!!!!

Some of You Younger Brothers can go Back and say, I Remember When!

IT SEEMS that a Brother tried to pass it along to a Brother in Canada and kept coming back so He said.

I have tried to call Him via Phone and wont return calls or emails!

So, The Catsup Book seems to be lost after many Brothers read it, signed it and passed it along. To say that I am upset is being nice.

If it turns up on ebay, I will really be PISSED!

Now, My Question is WHY?! WHY was it not sent back to me when it could not be passed along to another Brother who could enjoy it!

Jason thanks for reminding Me and bumbing this up.

Do you know who or where in Canada he said he was sending it to?

Tom Earp · #58 11-14-2005, 03:57 PM

Rob, cannot remember now and asked the Brother to send back to me. I have called several times and He has never returned my calls.

If it ever comes up on ebay, I will surely pitch a bitch!

I see you all have discovered my housemothers book, "HOW DID CATSUP GET ON THE CEILING". It was written a couple of years after I graduated, and yes, I am mentioned a few times. Mrs Jones was LCA Housemother of the year in 1982 (Nashville Convention) and was truly a wonderful lady. She passed away back around 1995 and I have no idea where one could get additional copies. The book chronicles her experiences as a housemother- I think she started at our house around 1964 and went until 1985 or so. A lot of changes in fraternity social experience during those times which makes the book a real historical masterpiece. Read it if you can. I was Alpha in 1983 and can tell you she left alot of good stuff out of the book...it is probably best that way ! If you ever see or know of additional copies for sale, please let me know-

Brother Rick, thank you for bring this up from an old post.

The one that I purchased was passed around until a Brother never sent it back.

It will be easy to identifiy as my name with Zeta is on the back of the front cover along with Brother Jono who was second and some others.

I was doing this as a favor to my Brothers with hopes of one day donating it IHQ.

I would really like to have it back!!!!

It is sad when a Brother does this to another Brother.
