jraines87 Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 Found an interesting article on the Skull & Bones society here Quote HARTFORD, Conn. - A Yale University historian has uncovered a 1918 letter that seems to lend validity to the lore that Yale University’s ultra-secret Skull and Bones society swiped the skull of American Indian leader Geronimo...............
gran Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 Now that sounds like grave robbing and sacriledge to me to unearth the skull of such an brave native is a crime. It would be like digging up the grave of George Washington or Lincoln. The Skull and Bones society of Yale is no club I would like to attend..
jraines87 Posted May 9, 2006 Author Report Posted May 9, 2006 I was wondering where the name came from.... Now I guess I know...
gran Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 Guess so wonder what other bones they got in their closet....
new & improved osteopath Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 I don't want to know- I am sure the contents of their closet would be both nefarious and disturbing. -O
ryyannon Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 Quiz for attentive readers: 1. What famous U.S. President's grandfather is alleged to have participated in the removal of Geronimo's remains from his grave at Fort Hill? Bonus Question for our brighter readers: 2. What current U.S. President, following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, was a member of Skull & Bones when a student at Yale? Now that distinguished member jraines87 has broached the subject, and if you REALLY want to get into all the endless ramifications of what he has, well, uncovered - check out what goes on at a place called Bohemian Grove: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-...G=Google+Search (My excuses to Watcher71, whom I've put in danger of imminent death by repeated peals of incredulous laughter at the kinds of pseudo-information that the lunatic left is capable of putting on-line and taking seriously...*) *the above statement does not necessarily reflect the personal opinions of its author, who may or not be me, unless it's actually somebody else.

ryyannon Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 So I see I'm hopeless at high finance anyway. And I've just noticed that my 'sent $ to someone else' functin isn't working anymore...

I just noticed that "Link" when I visited MSNBC website today.. The only fraternity I really give any creedance to is Delta
