I'm curious to know if there is a rule as to what can be displayed on the apron of a past master. I've gotten conflicting opinions with absolutely no proof of any trend judging from the PM aprons I see traveling from lodge to lodge.
Any answer on this question would be appreciated.
Question. Does The Grand Lodge of Texas have any stand on lodges having assistant secretaries? This is truly an impossible job unless you are retired, independently wealthy, or just a-social.
So that's where you were Friday night last year's Grand Lodge weekend!
Wild Bill_Lins and I were on the patio at Crickets! Of course, we had enough sense not to look at the mirror!
Go figure.

No one lives in this economy alone. Others MUST participate in one way or another. That participation can be constructive or destructive. The pendulum seldom finds true center is such turbulence. That is the potential problem I see.

Brother Ashlar 76 ... want to wait on that dream of a "future wife."

I recommend pure economic courses for us all. One source is The Learning Company that packages learned academia's front line professors on DVD and CD formats. These respected authorities teach classes that would take a semester to learn on campus. The courses are usually 24 to 36 one-hour...
That's a low blow brother.
I remember being a sports writer and covering the Houston Aeros of the old World Hockey League in that old building.
Even always stopping in to eat with Ninfa and the kids on Navigation Blvd.
Damn ... I turn back and I don't even see the hill anymore!
