I earned Eagle, but due to some political horseshit I was never awarded it.  I still consider myself Eagle though.

I'll explain to you some time.
Merciful Father, I have squandered my days with plans of many things. This was not among them. But at this moment, I beg only to live the next few minutes well. For all we ought to have thought, and have not thought; all we ought to have said, and have not said; all we ought to have done, and have not done; I pray thee God for forgiveness.

That's a story better left to be told in person.  I'll tell you at the next L-Day I manage to attend.  (between 1/9 and 1/23)

Okey dokey!
Which troop(s) were you in?
I started in Troop 333 in Ralls, Texas (my hometown). When we moved to Lubbock we were in a troop for one year at Trinity Church. After that I joined Troop 157. The L33Test Troop in the whole world!

Close to 280 registered boys at one time, not that they all went to the meetings.

Probably.  I worked them though.  I was a staff member at Post.

Hey Caenus I just remembered that they extended the Eagle age to 21! I couldn't remember if you where 21 or not but I just though I might pass that along.

It's too late for me dude, I'll 21 before I could resubmit the paperwork.  I don't care - I consider myself an eagle scout.  I did everything necessary, I just wasn't awarded the rank.
