I returned yesterday from the SED convention in Tallahassee. I am happy to report that the chapter received the Raymond D. Shannon Leadership award for the SouthEast District. This is an award given to the chapter that exemplifies and displays leadership both on and off campus. I am proud of the chapter and that brothers within the chapter continue to hold a large percentage of leadership positions within the bands and we have several brothers who are leaders within other organizations on campus too. I take my position as Sponsor very seriously, as I feel that i have a lot of friends who put a lot of time into this chapter when they were here. And to let all their hard work go to waste would be letting them down. So I continue to work to make sure that the Alumni of Kappa Beta have something they can be proud of. Hopefully, another great year in 2009 will see Kappa Beta listed again as a top ten chapter...we shall see....
It was great to see Pam and John again.... the time spent visiting was way too short.
finally... why is it that when I was driving back, I was looking for an Exxon/Mobil gas station that had diesel...and of course, there were none to be found??...eventually i got into my "i better get gas..um..like...NOW" window and stopped at the next exit that showed a BP with diesel. Used up my last 20 in cash and put in 5 gallons at 4.00 DOLLARS A FRAKKIN GALLON!!!!!!!!!!....so...now, a bit annoyed with the price, but not walking down I-75, i continue on back home.... and the VERY NEXT EXIT HAS A EXXON WITH DIESEL.... WITH EXXONS with DIESEL FOR THE NEXT 300 EXITS!!!!! ( or so it seemed )
might have to get a Dunder Mifflin polo soon...

Pam and I both want you to know it was great getting to see you, Jerome. Also glad to know that you made it back home safe and sound, even with the diesel scare ;-) In all seriousness, just know you're always welcome and we're looking forward to the day you can bring Jessica and the kids down too!
As for the Dunder Mifflin polo, if you do order it I'll be keeping my fingers crossed they have it in stock !!! ... (versus your deal with you know whom ;-) If you have any desire for copies of the episodes, just let me know and I'll burn them (in chronological order) on to DVD and shoot them up your way.

Congrats to KB and their fearless sponsor!
congrats to you and the chapter. I have liked finding your blog. thanks for the posts and your continued hard work to kb.
I haven't had the pain of $4 diesel yet...but $3.90 is painful enough. Argh.
