Ha! Y'all never taken 150 azure blue catsuits to the dry cleaners and tried to act nonchalant!

You don't have anything on the Phi Sigs. Try to coordinate everyone getting to Egypt so that we can have our our ultra top secret ritual in the hidden room between the Sphinx's feet. For those who can't make it to Egypt you should see them try to explain to the closest museum why you "just have to borrow" that Sphinx statue and it will only be for a short time.

Wow, I just thought you would have gone to Egypt for the Conventions for the super special initiations. I'll bet that is expensive every year.

Pink goats? Green giraffes? Borrowing a statue?

That's all nothing compared to LXA....first of all, we have to have a herd of sheep for ours. The herding...the feeding...the cleaning. Not only that, it's the endless training of the animals that is the hardest part. YOU try to get a herd of sheep to bay simultaneously!

After all, why do you think it's called "Laa-a-a-a-a-a-ambda Chi" anyways?

You all have it easy. Be thankful.

I would think you could just rent them from a local breeder for the weekend.

It's no picnic for those of us in APO either. Have you ever tried to catch an eagle when he accidentally gets out of the room?

wow LXAAlum! that's crazy.

and I thought we had it bad trying to keep the lion calm and from romping around the room during initation.

I sure hope everyone holds initation on different days! It would be crazy if any of the animals got loose on greek row! It could be disasterous

So why do you think we changed our mascot, back in the early 1900's? Lion's blood is SO much easier to find, when you have several prides "donating" each week.

Your sorority mascot was the unicorn in the past? I had no idea.

I'm so glad we finally decided on the bear...yeah they're mean, but tranquilizer dart practice sure does come in handy for later in life. Besides, now we're really all even. None of this one chapter using a goat's blood, another an antelope's, etc.

I get to go through our initaition ceremony from the active side in a few days (sunday our wee kittens go active!). It was such a beautiful ceremony, and i can't wait to do it again. I don't know if copies of our ritual exist, i've never seen anyone read them at initiation or any other ritual. If we do have one written down, it's kept hush hush. I know i've never seen a ritual manual. We have no ritual chair.
