The fifth group to award the
Order of the Pineapple was the
Order of the Pineapple itself.  By
the end of 2010, the group was
thought big enough to give its
own award.
2011
The 30th annual award (29th anniversary) was given on 18 January 2011, or 18 Chaos
3177.  Neither recipient was a member of the original Ek-sen-triks Cluborguild, the
Discordian Division of the Ek-sen-triks CluborGuild, or any other form of the
organization.
This year was the first time the Discordian Division of the Ek-sen-triks CluborGuild gave the
award to two "outsiders."  It was part of the expansion that had already begun, as the award
honored a greater variety of people who made exceptional contributions.  Both of the 2011
winners were definitely exceptional.

Sondra London
Sondra London conducted what are perhaps the final and most in depth interviews with
Discordianism co-founder Kerry Thornley aka
Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst, many of
which can still be found online.  The author is known, rightly or wrongly, for being a
"serial killer groupie," having dated a boy in high school who later became one, and
falling in love with another after the fact.  E also was a friend of Thornley during es
latter years, and wrote es obituary.  Working originally with
Rev. DrJon, London is listed
as compiler and editor of the coming Discordian tome
Discordia Prophetica.  "I have
become my story....I am not safe," said London.  "I never wanted to be a repeatable
person."
