When I was the little girl's age, I knew what Delta meant. But Mama Jitterbug did not have me trying to do the 'mid and ooo-oooping. She just put on a "I belong to a Delta" t-shirt (and there are pics to prove this).
The "Future Nupe" reminding me of a child trying to resite his Easter speech and the parent(s) trying to help him remember.
