Mike Langman, Kyle Simmons and Dave Weiss are embarking on a trip around the U.S. Starting in Virginia Beach Virginia and going all the way to Long Beach California and back. Traveling in an RV that Mike bought from Country 99.7 they hope to make the trip in 5 weeks.
I am writing here, because I could not figure out how to write on my guest blog space -- that is what I get for being a dinosaur. As for Convocation, Dave did such a great job, I am not sure that I have anything new to add. However, I will say that Carol and I are really PROUD of Dave, Kyle, Mike and Steve, because they are a class act who represented our Beta-Pi Chapter at UVA extremely well !!!! Our chapter became the first chapter in the history of Sigma Pi Fraternity to three-peat with three consecutive Grand Sage Awards, and we are tied with four other schools (including Wake Forest) with the most GSA's at four! Several of the Grand Council and Staff members plan to attend the Chapter's 50th Anniversary Celebration on Saturday, April 4, 2009. This was my 18th consecutive biennial convocation, it was Carol's 14th, Dave, Kyle and Mike's second, and Steve's first. Now I wonder if any of the four younger guys will surpass my record!?! Mike may if he remains the Chapter Director of Beta-Pi Chapter until he is 61 years of age like me!?! UVA visits Wake Forest this fall for Wake's "Homecoming," so I am hoping that Dave, Kyle, Mike and Steve to venture down to Winston-Salem, NC to visit Tyler, Jordan, Snaps, Carol and me for what should be a good football game!!! My son Andrew is driving from Charleston, SC to San Diego, but he is stuck in Houston, TX right now, waiting for four new tires and lug nuts for his car. I hope that Charlotte will make it back to Virginia Beach without such a delay! Thanks for allowing me to contribute somewhat to this great blog and roundtrip around the USA! We will definitely share some of the photos at the celebration on April 4, 2009 !!!!!! Fraternally, Pythagoras #29
