Our Friends

Do not be fooled by the title. There are very few humans featured on this page! We love our inanimate objects!!
Mamma Mamma Mary! Who else?
Marsha: AKA Marshmallow AKA  The Bermuda Couch Marsha, our beloved couch has supported us through all our ups and downs. Marsha also makes a great catcher at praying-over parties! She was named such because she was as smooshy as a marshmallow. Called the Bermuda Couch because you sink in, and can't find your way out! She was a gift from Kristy, our Chief Bellringer, because at the time, we had no good furniture.
Sven: The Yodeling Goatherd of the Alps. A real man- who will stand beneath your window... and yodel. When Emily went to Austria, she was warned by her mother about meeting and marrying: "the wedding's in January in Slovenia, hope you can make it." Sven, we love you!
Mr. Bimble: Mr. Bimble, on the other hand, is not cute. Ever-present, but quite invisible, he lives in Bellwether Radiator. He was named after watching Muppet Treasure Island. The random noises heard in the common room are often just him moving about.
Balloon Man: Balloon Man was created from a black balloon, a couple pieces of tape, Maria's hat and David Dayton's sweater. He was a dance partner during Spring 2001 Formal.
Box: Once while Steven and Susan were dating, praying in BITS common room, John Popp wanted to pack Mamma's crown and rosary. He wandered through the common room at intervals, calling aloud, "Box? You- BOX?! Box?," Pestering them to help him find Box.
Brother Max:
 

Brother Max is the official Household legionary. He lives on the Bellwether wipe off board, and loves God, country, and snow-ball fights! 

Dr. BellFrog and Servants For Household Olympics one year, the small households of MD, Bellwether, Spes Nostra, and Servants joined forces, and portrayed the State of Insanity.
Ignatius the Pagan Ferret Brendan brought Ignatius to Dr. Geogidas's Honors class to argue with the Church Fathers (because a good Catholic can't argue with the Fathers!) Ignatius didn't come to class often, but frequently entered discussions. He even asked Dr. G to formal! His cousin is Maximilian the Wolf, a puppet owned by Steven. Max didn't come to class much either. The newest member of the family is Martin the Heretical Puppy. (Annie, I'm sorry- my sisters found Renatta Ramona and they raccoon-napped her!)
Bell-ringer! Kristy joined MD before Bellwether was founded, but hung around us as our Bell-ringer. She was one of the first official "Buddies".
My Brother John At one time, the BITS could say. Hi, my name is John. This is my brother, John. This is my other brother, John. This is my brother who looks like John, and this is Not-John. (Johns Popp, Cassiello, Ghigliotti, Nathan Muenks, and Brendan Hodge)
GHRIDFL The Grand High Royal Imperial Dictator for Life, David Dayton. Creator of all things Potchgult.
