raphael18 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Funny, I did not know suta was to be a secret…there were always 2 meanings, a polite one that you were allowed to talk about and one that was kept for the corp…they still teach the kids that these days? Yeah, pretty sure its secret. :) Along with a few others... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piper Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I'm just guessing, but those terms probably mean different things to different members from different era's of a corps, and they usually keep it to themselves or amongst themselves. Which is cool. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc oldtimer Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 (edited) Spoolie, ??? Never heard of it. Maybe its "Sloopie"? As in "Hang on". Remember that? :) Isn't that a pet name that Jerry Seinfeld used for one of his girlfriends? As my brother Paul Milano stated there were many meanings out there for a long time but only a few select few knew the true meaning. Unitl 4 years ago I thought I knew it then while in a room full of alumni (or is that alums?) from the 50's, 60's and 70's, I learned the true meaning. My wife gave up long ago trying to get it out of me. And she can be VERY persuasive ^0^ Edited December 13, 2006 by dc oldtimer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is cool. If its what I'm thinking of, it was the original meaning when the word was first used by the all-male winter-guard (at least they told us an alternate one during corps history night). Also, from what I've gathered, there are slight variations in the meanning depending on when the person marched - but overall it means the same thing.

There's more than one: Aqueous Sequoia Queue There are even more, but they are obscure. Edited December 13, 2006 by Michael Boo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
