Beta Pi:

IS BETA PI BLOG WITHOUT ANY REDEEMING SOCIAL OR ARTISTIC MERIT?:


YEA . . . . or

NAY? Beta Pi Blog’s purpose: to bring ATO, Beta Pi Chapter Brothers and ATO Gal-Pals together. The blog is not to be taken seriously - it is meant for fun. The Beta Pi Blog is non-political. It includes

pictures, links, Archives of previous issues, and other time-wasters. To get there, go to web address: http:/beta-pi-blog.blogspot.com .

LINK UPDATE : McClatchy Newspapers reported that the U.S. Government wants to resume research on chimpanzees again.

They had stopped experimenting on chimps, but before they did,
they sent chimps into space, injected chimps with HIV - you name it, they did it to chimps.

These are the same chimps who starred in Tarzan movies as Cheetah. The Blog brings this up as a public service, to warn our own

GEORGE a/k/a M-LINK FORD that he might consider going into hiding, until this government plot against chimps blows over, or at least until the ASPCA can come to the rescue of the


endangered simians. HAAA!

YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN REVIVAL? As you may know, the fabulous film by Mel Brooks, Young Frankenstein, has been made into a Broadway play, with some success.

Get this! There is actually a touring company coming to Nashville, and Young Ann and I will be getting tickets.

All this made me think of that Immortal Tick-a-lor, that GIANT AMONG HUMANOIDS . . .

FRANK a/k/a MARTY COLLINS, and the Class of 1976, whose Reunion is fast upon us.
　
The Blog wishes to commemorate the Class of 1976 . . .

ART LANDRY

CHARLIE McGIBBONY

CHRIS a/k/a BIRDMAN PAGE

CONRAD a/k/a CONAN THE BARBARIAN PETERSON

DOUG a/k/a NUB MARTIN (and his brother RANDY a/k/a BUM-JAM MARTIN)

. . . which brings to mind . . . A STORY! Once upon a time . . .

Siamese Twins were born, conjoined at the groin!

The Doctor said

We can separate them - but we’ll have to cut, and it won’t be equal - one may
end up very short.

As fate had it, after the operation, one twin was very, very long and the other very, very short.

The Blog will not say which Martin Twin got shorted, but you can surmise it from their nick-names.

They don’t call him NUB for nothin’.

And, there can be only one MIGHTY BUM-JAM!

FRANK a/k/a MARTY COLLINS

JACK a/k/a NICK THE NICK NICHOLSON

JOE a/k/a who? GARVEY

LEE a/k/a SCHWIMBAG HALL

OLIVER a/k/a OLLIE GRACE

STEVE a/k/a THIN MAN QUATTROCHI

BILL a/k/a LUNCH-MEAT a/k/a SCHMEAT WHALEN

　 The stories about Marty and Schmeat and Nick alone could land the Blog in hot water. Perhaps some brave soul from Class of 76 will emerge as Tick Point Man for Reunion. Landry and Marty attended last year, and we hope to see them again! LET THE FLOODGATES OPEN!

STUBBY UPDATE: Apparently, Stubby was asleep at the wheel when the last Blog posted, but he redeemed himself with this excellent communique:

　I would like to order 2 doz. Stubby- bobble head dolls Should be a fast seller
will need more very soon.

TO STUBBY: Sorry, the dolls sold out - there was a Pit Bull Terrier Breeder who bought the entire lot (at twice retail), as dog toys for his attack pups. He said the likeness of Stubby’s face made his dogs drool.
