Welcome from Houston brother ... if you're "Ahboot" to brush those Leafs aside, rake them down here to Houston. Right now, we're down here "in the penalty box."

George Gobble (bless your little pea-pickin' heart)

Let's re-ask this question? Who doesn't have a picture of Brother George Washington on lodge premises? Really? Por que?

Always. Required to be read in Texas. Not at every meeting, but every minutes must be read often enough so they don't pile up.

King Tut

There's nothing quite as boring as a stated meeting. There's nothing more invigorating as traveling to another lodge for a stated meeting; especially if it takes an hour or more to traverse the distance. Ever notice someone variably mentions the fact that it was so much fun just hanging out...

Pay yearly dues though I am endowed. I consider the endowment as a social net for the lodge and myself once I have retired and, hopefully much later, moved on past the square into the land of the compasses. Still, I getting much for the little I put in the pot. Gentlemen, we're all getting...

Gentlemen I can see it now! You see the misses, in passing, headed to to adjoining pot on the other side of the master bathroom. You nod, she only slightly acknowledges. Not bad, if you remember last week; her tweedier message was both abrupt and stinging. Still it's typical communication...

Yes! Texas, UK, South America, any place where international laws hold.

Bro. Benton ... I'd say that's fairly close to breaking the skin. :39:

I must clarify. You should travel with a master mason who knows you; most often by having been there the night you received your degree. Whether or not he is a member of your particular lodge. The logic here is that you are cautioned not to identify yourself as an EA or FC to any other than...

Other than the Blake requirement the only thing else you must know is that it's not acceptable to break the skin.

I last saw a flying car headed north to Denver on the way from Colorado Springs. Pretty impressive if I say so myself. Anyway, all survived the incident. :38:

Yes, I traveled as both EA and FC. In Texas you must go with a MM of your lodge. Both times the MM made sure the visited lodge was either holding a degree on or would open on the degree I possessed. It's a great way for the candidate to envision the work he is learning. I found it most helpful.

You got there before I changed it. Sometime it just doesn't look right. A brother needs a word here and there you know. :sneaky2:

A. in two. (Questions and answers) But I've since learned to do all three degrees in one session. Still ... I'm a slow learner. :blush:

Me thinks it's Brother JJones handlebar mustache and three-piece, wide-lapelled, tux that so inspires me. Brother, that's solid class!:40: And, scialytic is going to be an easy one to call Brother before he is through. Brother Benton has fine advice and I enjoy his comments. He's a true...

yeah, bro bill_lins, SO MOTE IT BE! :13:, :19:,:3:, :31:,:7: , etc., and, of course, etc. I guess you can boil it all down by just sayin' ... a brother never breaks the skin when reminding one, in the most tender manner, of an error. While the ladies ... just sayin'. :15: NOTE...

patience. but stay on it. two-three times a week will get you there. just make very sure you have everything correct when you get back with the instructor. I never push too much past my candidate. I want him to know everything I teach him in a particular setting. For this, I expect him to...
