Greetings, Well I'm back at cornell, and we have had one of those incidents that will probabally become a legend at some point. Seems a member of a fraternity got a little drunk and disappeared. Two days later, he was found, dead, stuck in a chiminey at another frat. Seems he was trying to climb down and asphyxiated himself. at one point, a janitor heard some moans, and couldn't track the source of the noise. The real question is what was he trying to do, and how did a drunk guy get up on a steep roof. enquiring and sick minds want to know. eric -- kwix@vax5.cit.cornell.edu

It seems as though he was discovered when someone tried to light a fire and opened the flue, at which point our unlucky hero's pants and shoes came falling down the chimney into the fireplace. No word on exactly why he depantsed himself before expiring, but just suppose that nothing had come down the chimney to alert the people below that there was a body stuck up there before they got the fire going good. Heh heh heh. Dave

Maybe he thought he was Santa Claus. Happens to me every once in a while too. Poor guy shoulda' used Crisco. Works every time. John
