zone, so are you really Greek, or just in a fraternity ?

cartagena, funny, that’s exactly how I pictured you

trigem – that was awesome !

joosrsx, easy on the “frat boy” bashing there, killer ! Did you know :
  • Studies show that 76% of our nation's senators, 71% of the men listed in Who's Who in America, and 85% of the Fortune 500 Executives are fraternity members.
  • Of the nations 50 largest corporations, fraternity members head 43.
  • All but two U.S. Presidents since 1825 have been fraternity men, and 63% of the U.S. President's cabinet members since 1900 have been Greek.
  • 85% of the U.S. Supreme Court justices since 1910 have been Greek.
  • A U.S. government study shows that 71% of fraternity and sorority members persist to graduation, while just over 50% of all non-Greeks graduate.

haha...I actually look nothing like that. I am a blue eyed gringo. But some of my neighbors probably look just like that! Just last week the police flagged over a truck not too far from where I live. The driver got scared and ran. He lost control and flipped over, spilling over a TON of the white stuff all over the street. I am sure when his boss gets a hold of him it will look just like the picture.

Interesting stats

I was never bashing frat boys. I originally said it as a joke and then the other guy got all pissy about not being a "frat boy" so I decided to help out his reading comprehension.

I really don't have anything against frats. I lost some of my best brain cells in college with frat boys but it's not my thing. But it is apparently a great networking tool when you get into the real world. That is if you can put up with the goat humping for 4 yrs (that was another joke zone)

Amazing how much better the Boxster looks with 18" wheels and GT3 bumper. "


I just got it out of the Detailers and the top had some type of protective wipe on it so i didnt get to put it down for the day...I will take some more

Right, so you mean that most of our nation's leaders are incompetent retards who depend on their network to get them jobs? I think we already knew that.

I'm just saying that we pride ourselves in not being a run-of-the-mill "frat," and refer to ourselves as a fraternity. There is negative connotation when you (a non-Greek) calls someone a "frat boy."

Nick: No, I'm Danish. (Aarhus represent! ) The only Greek in me is the letters I've been wearing on my chest.
