Bro Reaper, your post is probably a bit cheeky... but its worth asking.. whatchagottaloose...
How long have you been a MM ?
How big is your collection so far ?
I could probably send you something once GL opens.. but the one I would want to send you is out of production (it has a map of...
I don't know Bro Jermy - I have not faced that problem, but would imagine it would be disheartening.... I'd probably keep donating my time to those guys... .
Do you let EAs at business meetings or only MMs ? I assume they need to be MMs to join Shrine, if they cant really participate in lodge...

You are in a tricky spot. I do not envy you. I had the same problem around homophobia with a few making comments. I think it lost us an applicant a few years ago. My tack was to...
Can I read between the lines the decision to close lodges was not popular, or that some want to reopen ASAP ?
I want to be careful to be sensitive to due bounds, but it seems to me, far away here in Australia and relying on media and a few person friends, that the USA politicized COVID-19 and...
Well.. you'd better start "Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster of the East in Lodge" with the S&Q as its emblem..... want me to sign up ?
