State of the Group Address - 2007

I'm writing about the state of our group. As Chairperson of Kappa-Beta I'm concerned about the welfare of our beloved group and so should all the members.

All of the members who have been around here for some time now should know that I'm a very straight-forward person, that I tell it like it is, that I only want the best from our group and it's members. I won't ask any member to do something that I wouldn't do myself.

More on Labels

Reprinted by permission of Crystal from Vanity Club email

I decided to complicate this whole thread. I have agreed individually with some of you that I abhor labels as a poor substitute for reasoned thought. So much for that. Now I'd like to bring up the subject of "Who" is being labeled. To keep this from becoming a thesis, I'm cutting out so much that it may read like a fractured hard drive. Oh well.

You see there are two of us. There is "J" who wanted desperately to be a girl beginning at age 4 and matured into a successful male who had a fanatic fascination with everything female and feminine. He began wearing his sister's undies at that age and, of course, progressed to mother's things. No surprises there. About age 12 or 13 he experienced a quite significant breast development (search on Gynecomastia if you're interested). Hmmmm?

The Real Laws: part 2

Last month I presented part I of Murphy’s Laws and my phone has not stopped ringing since. In order to satisfy the obvious high demand for more, I have decided to present the next 10 Laws, plus a bonus 2! This will no doubt be the end of Murphy’s Laws, Pink Slip version.

As a reminder: we are all governed by laws and rules: Federal, State, County, City, and in our case, down to the level of organizational By-Laws. There are certain laws that are so much a part of our existence that they cannot be broken, such as the Laws of Physics, and offered for your consideration: Murphy’s Laws.
