How come I'm Cloudy...? Well I guess for the most part it's my own damn fault. Nope, it's not because drinking way too many beers has clouded my mind, though they probably have. Neither, does it have something to do with my trying for the Boy Scout "Meteorology Merit Badge" back in 1959. (Which I never earned.)

So why is it for the most part my own damn fault? It's because of my name. My last Name is MacLeod.

Many years ago I was a college freshman at Colgate University, and in the winter of 1964-1965 I had to choose a fraternity. I decided to pledge Phi Delta Theta. The pledge master assigned us names, and I guess when he came to me, he decided that I would be "Cloudy" because of the pronunciation of my last name.

Many years later, when I signed up for Players Plus, I was at a loss for a good handle that was six letters or less long. Suddenly, it dawned on me... CLOUDY, and that's my story.

Thanks--I've wondered about that.

Hard to tell if that is him on the front row.

(I Need to preface this post with a comment. I thought I was just adding the story behind my handle to the thread. I had no intention of creating a new thread, but it looks like I screwed up. Is there any way all of this can be transferred to the appropriate thread?)

How the Hell did you come up with that photo of me and my beer drinking buddies? Yep, you got me. I'm the guy holding a beer.

p.s. This is the 3rd reply to your post I've tried to enter. The others seems to have just disappeared. I sure as Hell hope I haven't been creating a bunch of new threads.

Nice photo and nice try, but nope... I'm pretty sure that my date and I both passed out before that picture was taken. As I recall, we both were dumped into the same bunk bed upstairs in the house, and didn't come to until the sun had gone down and the band started to play.

Yes.
That is Pinto in the front row on the left. Good work.

ICEMAN, I can't get the picture to show up. (Don't think parental controls on my computer are blocking it.) All I get is a tiny box with a red "X" in it. Tried right clicking on it and hitting "show picture", but nothing happens.

If you can find another picture, please put it up there. Can't wait to see my old drinking buddies at the house again. :P

Just released - a rare photo of Cloudy & his buddies at his last Tappa Kegga Day reunion...

Nope, I took the picture. That was my night to be the designated driver. Drinking diet Cokes all night was a bitch, but at least I kept my clothes on.

"Thong Thursday" was wild, but "Naked November" was crazy, and it lasted for a month...! :lol:

p.s. The pictures I have of "Naked November" are not appropriate for "The ScaRatings".

I suppose it serves me right, thinking I ought to read stale threads just in case there's something important or entertaining I missed . . .

. . . but could someone be a dear and pass me the bucket of mind bleach? I may never be able to floss again without extensive therapy

I had to return to this thread, because I couldn't go to the grave without defending my fraternity from those, who besmirched it.

Phi Delta Theta was founded in 1848, one of the Miami of Ohio Triad that included Beta Theta Pi and Sigma Chi. Some of the fraternity brothers did pretty well for themselves. This would include Neil Armstrong, Lou Gerhig, Grantland Rice, Dabney Coleman, Bill Bixby, Ron Cey, Weeb Ewbank, Adlai Stevenson (Sr.), Frank Lloyd Wright, Bert Reynolds, Tim Conway, Roger Ebert, President Benjamin Harrison, and a quite a few more:

235,000+ Phis have been initiated since 1848
1100+ Phis have lost their lives in defense of their country * (Steve Riggs, a tremendous hockey player, who was a fraternity bother of mine at Colgate, is on that list.)
400+ Phis have played Professional Football (200+ in the NFL)
111 Phis have been U.S. Congressmen *
34 Phis have been Governors (31 State and 3 Territory) * 1
31 Phis have combined to win 53 Olympic Medals (26 Gold, 14 Silver, 13 Bronze)
31 Phis have been United States Senators 2
16 Phis have Stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame *
10 Phis have combined to win the Emmy Award 23 Times 3
9 Phis have won the Pulitzer Prize *
8 Phis have been awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor 4
6 Phis are in the Baseball Hall of Fame * 5
6 Phis are enshrined in the National Football Hall of Fame
5 Phis have won the Golden Globe
5 Phis have been honored with United States Postage Stamps
5 Phis have been awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom
4 Phis have won the George Foster Peabody Award
4 Phis have won the Academy Award
3 Phis have served on the US Supreme Court
3 Phis have been NASA astronauts
3 Phis have been enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame
3 Phis have won the Heisman Trophy
3 Phis have won the Tony Award
2 Phis have won the Grammy Award
2 Phis have been Canadian Premiers (equivalent of a US State Governor)
2 Phis been recognized with imprints at Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood *
1 Phi has been a United States President
1 Phi has been awarded the Nobel Prize
1 Phi has been awarded the Victoria Cross

So where is Cloudy on these lists...? Sorry guys, I didn't make any of them, because they didn't include, "World's best beer drinkers", as a category. :(

Cool story on the screen name Cloudy.

On the off subject of this thread, I lived in Eugene OR where they filmed Animal House. The frat house was still standing at he U of O campus when I lived there from 83-85. It was pretty well trashed. There was a drive to get it named a landwark, but the city wanted it torn down. Don't know what happened to it.

Tear it down...? Noooooooooooooooooo...! Let me know when those idiots decide to loose the bulldozers, and I will be there to join you in blocking them. It's sad that John Belushi can't join us, but a couple bags of sugar poured into their bulldozers' fuel tanks, when they aren't looking, should save the day. :lol:

It's been more than a few years, but I will do my best to contact as many of my old fraternity brothers, their dates, and the band to join us. I'm carefully checking this video out to see how many I can identify. Hopefully, I will be able to find a few of them on Google:
