I've done the Guthrie Spring Reunion twice. It's really worth it at least once if you're a Scottish Rite Mason.

Chris, Chris. Four score and five is 85. A score is twenty.

They need to make a couple more moderators.

Yep. As you know, it's rare in American jurisdictions.

Huh? :confused:

I'd actually be relieved that nothing had changed. I hope you didn't think that becoming a Mason would get you favored status at work. I don't know about your jurisdiction, but in mine those kind of expectations are addressed in the interrogatories before the first degree.

First of all, you should ask to meet with him privately. Ask him why you've been passed over. If his answer isn't one that restores your faith in your lodge, perhaps you need to look for another lodge in your area that's a better fit for you.

I dabble in guitar playing (retirement project.) Posters in a guitar group I frequent sometimes drive me nuts with this. The other day there was a thread with the title "DLR" Reading the post, he was apparently referring to some rock performer, but continued to only refer to him as DLR. From...

We still have a Grand Pursuivant in Minnesota. Sometimes, when GL is held in some hotel ballroom, the tyled door is so far away from the Junior Grand Deacon that he wouldn't be able to hear an alarm at the door. So the GP announces the alarm. No need for one in Blue Lodge, however. The...

In Minnesota, alcohol is only prohibited in the actual lodge room. Elsewhere in the building is okay. And I attended lodges in Scotland where "harmony" was held in the same room as the meeting had just been conducted in. They removed the Masonic accoutrements, set up tables, and the bar...

I never thought about that. Our organ is in the northeast corner, but we don't have anyone who can play it.
