I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

Thanks everyone! When the Court of Honor rolls around, I'll post pics (whether or not I wear a kilt).
For those who don't know, what I went through was a board of review, in which five officials from the troop and the council go over the paperwork I had to fill out, read the letters of recommendation I got, and question my parents, my scoutmaster, and me. Then, they deliberate and make their decision, which they then inform me and my parents of.
The whole process took about three extremely nerve-wracking hours, of which only about forty-five minutes was actually spent talking with me.

I know! I need to get on my brother's case to get his act together (a Star scout and only three years left!).

Congratulations from a fellow Eagle Scout. Definately mention it on your various school and job applications.
Make your Eagle Court of Honor your own (ie kilt, bagpiper, etc...). I had an OA themed one (many years ago) and was very pleased with how it turned out. When i got mine, they all seemed to be pretty much the same. Fellow scouts and scouters will appreciate the variation.

Congratulations. You have done what most just wish for. A little bit of hard work in your teens makes life a little easier. Good Work.
