There are many clubs within Masonry that are recognized and sanctioned. Just within my local Shrine Temple, there is: Bedouins RV Club Motorcycle Club Yacht Club Golf Club All specialized clubs with a common, non-masonic interest, yet you must be a Shriner (and therefor a Master Mason) to join.

We still have an Entered Apprentice on the books from 1999. His address is no longer valid, and I'm thinking that he will be suspended if he doesn't pay his dues (as now required). I guess that's one way to clear up the roster of non-interested members.

When I became an EA, then a FC, I wasn't even given the option of the long form. I was just told to memorize the obligation in short form. I think I would have chosen the short form if given the choice then, but knowing what I know now, I see the value of the long form. Is the short form...

Over at the Northern California Lodge where I am a member, I have been stressing and sweating for the last 4-5 months, but a couple of days ago, (most of) the stress has been lifted! Several months ago, my Lodge Master asked me if I had begun working on my Master Mason proficiency...I had not...

My local Shrine mini-car club voted me in today, and I get my car in a coupe of weeks! Whoohoo! I'm told my car is a bit of a fixer-upper and needs both body and engine work, but I have all winter to tinker with it. This is me with one of the nicer cars the day I was voted in:

I will be an iPhone 5 zombie. My 3Gs phones are slow and buggy (and the battery life is very short these days). I put off upgrading when both the 4 and 4s came out...it's time for a change.

I purchased a Grotto fez on eBay just to get the fez case for my Shriner fez. I tried to find some info about the Grotto, and am not having much luck...is it a defunct group? I was hoping to find a Grotto member to see if they wanted the fez. I have no use for it.

Just a follow up...got Fezzed yesterday after the Hot Sands!

TL;dr Paragraphs and line breaks are your friend. Large, long blocks of text make my eyes cross.

I met with the President of my local Shrine Chapter last night for an hour, talking about different paths of masonic education and service beyond the 3 degrees of the Blue Lodge. After hours of soul-searching and discussions with my wife over the last week, I believe the Shriners are what I am...

All the time (when I remember). I take it off at night to sleep (unlike my wedding ring) and don't always remember to put it on when I get up.

Shoot...I just saw this. I have to remember to log in her more often!
