So Mote it Be!

I was discussing yard sales with brethren of Aldine Lodge Friday morning. They've held one several years now. Last yerar the cleared $1900 for a one-day event.

We should spend more money on renovating the Grand Lodge of Texas. We should pay enough dues to keep from spending all of our time (though this appears to be in dispute) raising money to keep the doors open at our local lodges. And last, but certainly not least, we should hire a better...

Were I to know most of the things I am saying, I might not communicate at all!

I'm not a member but I see good work go on in our local OES group. It would be much, much better were there a span of age groups involved. However, whether that means adopting the aforementioned guidelines or not is, of course, up to the OES. I wish the members well in their endeavors to...

Careful Brother Hatley, sooner or later someone is going to drop one of those rough ashlars on your foot or toe. At that point you may reach the critical stage, depending upon your insensitivity. Make sure you are prepared and have a tough enough skin to consider the source. Other times...

Thanks Brother Ecossais for the further clarifications.

WOW! Is that safe to carry in your pocket! Likes it very much.

Girl friend! Txmason you are out of control. :lol:

I don't know who needs more help. Those characters among the 500 ... or me for watching the entire video. :confused1:

I was just looking at the vote on this poll. Were it a true picture of masons viewpoints, this issue could have been solved sometime back. Unfortunately, I think may of the nay-sayers aren't represented. It's going to be a long, tough road to hoe. But one worth cultivating.

20 pounds! Relax brother! Get some sleep! Seriously, I was at the point of carrying a bed cover around with me all night sleeping in a chair for a few minutes, sleeping setting up on the couch, even on the screened in patio. When I went for my study I felt so good the next morning! The...

Where were you when I was in the seventh grade back home in Louisiana. They made that Louisiana History course last one full year! Pirate, Indians, British invasions, Huey P. Long, the civil war battles along the rivers Mississippi and Red held my attention. But I suffered through that...

Looks like a good one. Has it been released?

One brother told me he wears his where he can display the most light. He considers the compasses as the side of the ring that displays light. Wears it with the compasses pointing toward him. Says he displays much more light bouncing it off his slick bald head. Sometimes, when he catches...

Masonry can't come on the cheap. Not for long. We've got to start paying our way. That takes planning and it takes money. Today's fees are much less per the cost of inflation than they were n the 1960s. If we paid more, we might value our fraternity more. There are ways to cover those who...

These tattoos are well thought out. These guys are artist of the purest form.

Cool. What is the pain level on such as this.

I'm more than sure we can all agree to that statement. Thanks for the clarification. Remember, take nothing with a grain of salt. :40:

Good take Brother Maloney. And, everyone should remember the stakes (including death) were much higher in those days. Voltaire, were he alive, could surely enlighten us on that. He found himself surrounded by zealots on all sides. Brethren, what if we had to live his life? Anyone feel up...
