Dear Honorable President of The DLFA, Rich Bechler,

I believe we may have met once or twice, back in the days of fukness 1977-1982, at DL.
My name is Tom Hanson. I was a Taylors Falls local, who adopted the club philosophies after several weekends at Devils Lake and, along with a handful of miscreants, established the ISFA (InterState Fukness Association), back in about 1978. In 1982 I moved to Denver, to further fulfill my vision of Jackness. Today I live in Castle Rock, CO next to Castlewood Canyon, where I continue to walk the fine line and perpetuate the club legacy. Though 48, I am not light.
I am geographically removed from my brethren in the Boulder chapter. I am training the next generation to walk the fine line. I will require a title that will impress the neophytes.
All of my credentials are in order. I had my initiation back in the late seventies, both at DL and at Taylors Falls, where I swilled Old Milwaulkee and Phillips Blackberry Brandy, while inverted.
I posted an inquiry on MountainProject.com, asking any old clubbers to respond to my inquiry of how one goes about having an honorary club title bestowed upon them.
Back in the late seventies, I had the unofficial self-title of Royal Arch Duke of Fukness, while my bother went by The Cosmic Ambassador of Fukness. These titles were never given to us by the core DL chapter, and for this reason, I have always felt that something was amiss. (I have also heard that titles similar to these have already been taken).
After much thought and introspection, I have come up with a title for myself, that I feel will compel me to live up to the club standards.
The Megalomaniacal Potentate of Fukness.
I know that it is presumptuous of me to request to take on such a magnificent title, but I feel that I will live up to its eloquence.
Steve the Drug Machine suggested that I go straight to the President, and for this reason I am asking you for the official title of Megalomaniacal Potentate of Fukness, Castle Rock Chapter.

Please advise. Thank you.

Tom-

The key to DLFA membership and to DLFA higher office (which brings with it the honorific titles) is apparent indifference to formal recognition meanwhile always walking the fine line.

Thanks Leo,

Just as I thought. I have always, and will always, walk the fine line in the pursuit of total jackness!
I unofficially bestow upon myself the unofficial title of The Megalomaniacal Potentate of Fukness, DLFA, Club West and The Land Beyond.
I will require this title to impress the neophytes while educating the next generation in the club policies.

Thank you Rich, DLFA President.
I will wear my new title proudly.
I will barbeque a whooping crane and swill plenty of cheap bourbon in celebration.
