Re pomping: for us it consisted of brushing a ton of liquid glue over chicken wire and sticking squares of colored tissue paper in the holes. No markers were harmed in the making of our Homecoming floats.

Hahahaha..I was thinking the same thing. Instead of markers being harmed...out fingers were sore as hell once we were done...Pomping starts out being fun, but after a while you're like "Holy Shit this is painful..can we stop...It's done being fun, now!"

Our pomping what somewhere in the middle- it was chicken wire and then strips of tissue paper was twisted around it and then puffed out. And it does take forever- about a week to pomp a normal float.

However I did meet one of my best friends while pomping- he was in the fraternity we were paired with for homecoming. He is now my oldest son's godfather. So for me, pomping will always be a great memory!

As for joining a second org- trying to keep both affilations straight and keep is secret from different people seems like too much work! And I cannot imagine trying to do it today with all the technology around.
