my hope is that all you soon-to-be mids keep this tradition going.
When my poor husband, class of '72 was there - they lost all 4 years to Army!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>haha, zaphod, i love your comments & entries. one of his favorite, and one of the few (he was a very academically motivated person, graduated 7th in his class! :O ) pranks he pulled was that he & his roommate for 3 weeks before army week collected condiments from king hall. the tuesday night during army week, he & his roommate "condimented" one of the plebes rooms that had given him a little attitude about something before. </p>
<p>he showed me pictures, it was hilarious. it was about 1:30 am, they went into the plebe room and started w/peanut butter, and spread the room's deck about in peanut butter, then ketchup, mustard, salad dressing, and shaving cream to top it off. he said it was almost 2 inches high. </p>
<p>naturally, they lined the floor & chair legs w/thin plastic, but the next day, they yelled at the plebes for messing up their room, & laughed while watching them having to clean it up, the plastic ripped an aweful lot :)</p>
<p>"NO ONE sleeps THAT soundly unless they've been SHOT." zaphod</p>
<p>...or stabbed. I heard that Spirit Week ended this year after a plebe with a shaving cream bomb accidently got stabbed with a bayonet. He's okay, only required a few stitches. :eek:</p>
