The pledges were still working on their pledge project when they realized nobody was putting their hard work into the computer.
"Hey, where's Matt?" Superman asked.
"Yeah, I haven't seen him in a while." Poptart added.
All the pledges were starting to get worried. Without Matt, the encyclopedia wouldn't get finished.
About half an hour later, the pledges were put at ease when Matt walked back into the lair.
"Matt!" Everybody yelled.
"Where've you been? Dracula asked.
"I'm not Matt, not anymore." Matt said.
All the pledges looked at him like he was crazy.
"I'm officially known as pledge Macrosoft." Matt said.
The pledges cheered and congratulated their brother on his new nickname. They couldn't wait to hear all about how he got it.
"I was showing Pledge Educator Diesel some stuff on my laptop for the rager. He said my computer skills were amazing. Much better than any other KT he's ever seen, well except for the dude that made the Joshua Whopper program. Since my laptop is a Mac and I'm a wiz at any Microsoft program, he combined the two to give me the nickname Macrosoft; Macro for short." Matt explained.
"Welcome to the family Matt. Having a nickname means you're officially a brother now." Poptart said.
"Not quite." Blade said. "We've still got to get through initiation first."
"And if we don't finish this pledge project, there might not be an initiation." Carson said.
"Yeah, be better get going." Matt, now pledge Macrosoft, said. He got back on the computer and put his skills to work.
Carson knew he needed to get the book finished; he was so close. The remaining pages were about the width of a magazine. It seemed like easy reading and he could get it done in no time. As long as he got it done by Saturday night, he was all set. Then he could just sit back, relax, and enjoy the rager planned for the night after.

Revenge on the Omega Chi's has never tasted so sweet. If everything goes according to planned, we'll never have to worry about the Omega Chi's ever again. This is going to be the best spring break ever, and not just because of our sweet revenge. I'm going to lavaliere Casey on her birthday. I know she hates surprises, but this is something I know she'll love. I just hope she gets into CRU Law, otherwise I'm screwed. Long distance is not going to work.
"Yeah because we know the last couple of lavalieres turned out really well." Carson said sarcastically as he read.
Phase Two: Complete! The Omega Chi's being homeless has to be the funniest thing ever. I can't believe they fell for the fake mobster owning the house. Can't wait for Phase Three.
April 10, 2009
Happy Birthday Casey! I love you so much and I'm so glad you decided to stay in Cyprus with me. You giving up GW Law was definitely the most romantic thing ever, and I can't wait to show you how much that means to me when I give you your present tonight.
Phase Three just keeps getting better and better. Dale, my bestest best buddy, you have excellent timing. I wonder how the Omega Chi's dealt with the cops. Oh well, not my problem. The only thing I've got to worry about is making sure the moment is perfect for when I lavaliere Casey.
"Cops? What the hell did you guys do?" Carson asked himself. For the first time since he started reading the book, he went back through the other notebooks to find out about the spring break revenge plan. "Ah, crazy party at the beach house; now it makes sense."
The four and final phase is officially complete. Our revenge plan worked. Thank you Spitter for your amazing expertise. Because of you, Calvin is going to be Omega Chi president and there will officially be a truce between our houses. Now to give the love of my life the gift I know she will never forget.
"Uh oh. Let's see how well this goes." Carson said, continuing to read.
GOD DAMNIT! I can't believe she did that to me! She's never had faith in us. This is kind of my fault actually. I let myself get sucked in again. How could I be stupid enough to think she'd accept my lavaliere and that she'd stay in Cyprus and spend the rest of her life with me? This started out being the best spring break ever, but now it's officially being categorized as the worst. So much for the 'Cappie and Casey Power Couple'.
"Seriously." Carson said. He couldn't believe what he just read. The amazingly perfect couple known as Cappie and Casey broke up; on spring break; on his mother's birthday. That has to be the worst break up ever. At least when he broke up with a girl, he made sure he waited until after her birthday to do it; that way they could at least have one last good holiday together.
"Hey guys, remind me to never lavaliere a girl…ever." Carson told his pledge brothers.
"Yeah, Kappa Tau's don't do so well with lavalieres." Superman said, reading about Spitter's lavaliering drama in one of the books. The pledges also found one of the KT history books that explained how bad things happen when KT's lavaliere girls; Titanic and Chernobyl, just to name a few.
Now Carson was getting really interested. He wanted to know how Cappie handled the rest of the year without Casey. He also wondered if Cappie ever graduated. He knew all these questions would be answered in the book, so he kept reading.
May 17, 2009
Graduation day; well not my graduation day. Today some of the people I've had the good fortune of calling my friends are starting new chapters in their lives. Even Casey's moving on. It'll be my turn someday; but today, Kappa Tau needs me. Well not specifically today…you get what I meant. Today specifically, begins my journey across this great nation. Why didn't I do a cross country trip before?
May 18, 2009
Let the road trip begin! This is going to be so much fun! So many states, so many girls, so little time. You know I could just drop out of school and spend my inheritance traveling. I wonder how many different bars I can hit in one day.
May 31, 2009
Why have I never been to Florida? The girls down here are smokin hot. Especially Sydney; I didn't mind staring at her bikini body all day long. Beach, beer, and babes; what could be better.
June 23, 2009
Been forgetting to write in here lately. Guess I've been a little, preoccupied. Savannah was gorgeous, and I don't just mean the landscape. So far this trip has been my best decision ever! Next big thing, spending July 4th where they do it best…Washington DC!
July 4, 2009
WHOO HOO! I LOVE DC! So many Fourth of July parties to go to. Apparently in DC if you don't have, or go to, a party, you're considered an outcast. Works for me…I love to party! Bring on the alcohol and the women!
"Cappie certainly misses my mother." Carson said sarcastically. "A road trip does sound kind of fun though."
August 8, 2009
I can't believe there's less than a month til I go back to school. I don't want this summer to end. It's been so much fun, and I've seen so much of this country. I have to say, the hottest women are definitely in California, with Florida being a close second.
"He's got a point there. Cali girls are gorgeous." Carson said.
"Not as hot as Floridians." Superman said. "And I agree with you about the road trip. Before we graduate, the four of us are definitely going on one."
"According to Cappie, Florida's women came in second, but hey 2nd out of 50 is still pretty damn good. And the four of us?"
"Yeah, you, me, Lily, and Maddie." Superman said. "The famous foursome taking on the country together."
"Sounds great, but for now, what do you say we get this pledge project done first." Carson said. They both agreed and laughed as they went back to work.
August 27, 2009
You're killing my high dude. Seriously, you got to keep bringing up your sister. Yes I understand she's leaving in two days, but guess what else I understand. I understand that we broke up and she made that pretty clear on Cinco de Mayo. If she wants to come say goodbye to me she can, but otherwise I'm not going out of my way to see her.
Ok, so first you won't stop talking about your sister, and now you're trying to take my job. What the hell is wrong with you? Are you sure you're my little brother? Oh well, time for me to prove why I'm the better president. Then….TOGA PARTY!
Can this day get any worse! Spitter might actually have a chance at winning and Casey just bitched me out! I'm definitely going to need some drinks tonight…a lot of drinks!
August 28, 2009
Damn, that was some party last night. So many people had so many revelations and realizations. Especially me. Spitter made me realize that I still love Casey. Even though we broke up, I can't see my life without her. I hope it's not too late for me to go apologize to her.
Holy crap she's staying! This is amazing! I still have a shot. All I've got to do is prove to her that I can change. I need to do this. I need to get her back.
August 29, 2009
Ok now that half the brothers are gone, we're kind of screwed. This goes against everything I used to believe in, but we need to TRY to get pledges. Karmic Synergy is going to have to wait until next year. I just hope we can actually pull it off. And who knows, maybe this trying thing will be the thing that'll win Casey back for me.
And this is why KT's don't try. When we try, bad things happen. Poor Timmy, we'll never forget you. And Casey is really getting on my nerves. I don't change and we're not together; I do change, and we're still not together. When is she going to get that I'm only changing to be with her? I know I should want more for myself, but right now, all I want…is her.
"Who's Timmy?" Carson asked.
"Timmy was Beaver's pet snake." Blade said. He had read all about Timmy in many of Beaver's books.
"Thanks man. That makes more sense now." Carson said, thinking something bad happened to one of the brothers. He wanted to know how long this 'trying' thing lasted, so he kept reading.
August 30, 2009
Once again Spitter comes to the rescue. Turns out we were trying all wrong. We were searching for quantity when we should have been looking for quality. It doesn't matter how many guys we get, all that matters is that we get guys that a true Kappa Tau's. Now I see what Casey meant by trying for me. I finally have something to live for, other than getting her back. I need to make sure that when…yes when…I leave KT, I'm leaving it with a group of guys that I know will do it justice and bring pride to the Kappa Tau name.
August 31, 2009
Damnit! We've been having secret rush parties for how many years? Why all of a sudden do we get busted? Got to be those Omega Chi douches. I'm sure now that they know about Mission: Probable they're going to do everything in their power to get us back. This sucks. The only good part about it is we at least get to keep one pledge. Thank you Peter Parks, I mean Pledge Spiderman, for being a legacy.
"No way. Spidey was the only pledge in his entire pledge class. How is that even possible?" Carson said.
"It's a long story." Dracula said. "I guess being a legacy has its benefits."
"Kind of makes me wish I was a legacy." Carson said. Even though most of his family either went to, or graduated from, CRU, he still wasn't a legacy like some of the brothers in the hall of fame. He wanted that built in pride that came with it. There's a certain kind of Kappa Tau pride that only comes from a legacy trying to live up to his father's mark on Kappa Tau.
