Johnny Winter - blues rock musician from Beaumont.

Wow. That is a professional looking newsletter. The Saints John article was very good. Only thing I didn't like was the dress code, but that is my issue not the lodges.

Protest question: Very good answers. It is important to remember that the protest counts as a blackball vote. Three are currently required in Texas to prevent election. You cannot vote and file a protest since this would be the same as voting twice.

Here is my answer. Sorry about the length. It is a curious instance of dialectic difference of pronunciation between the East and West Jordanic tribes. There is evidence that the sound "sh" passed into the Hebrew from the East of Jordan, possibly from the Arabians, with whom the sound is...

Bro. Dr. Karl A. Menninger - Psychiatrist famous for treating mental illness and headed the Menninger Foundation until his death in 1990.

Bretheren, I posted a message earlier and requested any information on Gamble Lodge #244 in a quest to write the History of a Lodge that demised 20 years ago. I have asked all 2 surviving members for their assistance. The problem is they are getting old. I called the Grand Lodge. The Grand...

Benito Mussolini - Italian Fascist ally of Hitler that in 1924 decreed that every member of his Fascist Party who was a Mason must abandon one or the other organization. In 1925, he dissolved Freemasonry. When bad men come into power Freemasonry is banned. That says a lot about our good...

Since you are in academics at the collegiate level, you probably have learned that some research is considered acadmic and some is considered trash. Please regard the source of information you gather before getting to concerned. Most of the information about Satanism and the Lodge started in a...

I was planning on having a website for myself and other masons that do jewlery or other interesting items so that they can sell their wares. The BIG reason I am doing it is for the philanthropy I mentioned - donating engraved firearms. A well done shotgun, rifle or pistol should be able to...

It was in Bastrop, TX from the late 1800s to 1991, when its charter was pulled. Some of the members formed Mina Lodge in 1993. My problem is the fact that all records of the lodge were given to Grand Lodge when the charter was pulled. I am attempting to research some of the things that happened...

Of course if anyone wants a gun or knife, or even motorcycle parts, done, I would love to do those also. I plan on doing some firearms and donating them to lodges as fundraisers (raffle) items for scholarships.

I am beginning research for a Texas Lodge of Research paper. I am looking for information on Gamble Lodge. This lodge lost it's charter a little less than 20 years ago. If anyone had any info I would appreciate it.

The Gene Carnes question is still outstanding. HINT: Read the Blanco Blog. Here is another question to be working on as well: When a petition for initiation is read in the Lodge, a) when can a protest be filed?, b) who does it have to be filed with?, and c) after filing the protest can the...

Sammy Alred - mandolin picker

I never made jewelry. I used to engrave firearms and knives for a local gun store. I have developed an interest in jewelry after my son bought me a custom ring made from a stainless steel nut by Bastrop WM Elect David Potter. My goal is to do custom work for people, and with their permission...

Funny how that works. I loved gold until my wife made me shop for white gold or silver. It grew on me too.
