Branding?

Hey, guys: I realize that I'm over 40 (closer to the big 5-0), so the affection for this item on eBay escapes me. Somebody's trying to sell a branding iron w/our letters on it. Here's the address:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...918634269&rd=1

To my knowledge of things in "the olden times" (mid-1970's), the only GLO's that gave their members brands were NPHC organizations.

I realize that tattoos have become more popular since that time, and have seen people marching around General Assembly & Leadership Seminars w/the Coat of Arms tattooed on their arms/calves/wherever. But BRANDING?

Is this supposed to be an example of how deeply felt one's feelings are for dear old Lambda Chi? I don't know if Messrs. Cole, Mason et al had this in mind. It almost sounds like a hazing issue to me. If it's not, let me know.

ZAX,
BF
