Reviving a dead horse ... or getting your gerrymandered ax back out to grind it.
It may be time for some of us on the other side of this argument to tell you point blank:
Don't Tread on Me!
Here's a thought, why don't we use this website for masonic topics and keep the ax in your closet for...
Simply put. It has all to do with the placement of the S & Q.
Again, this was a one-off campaign and only one year in duration. The ground rule still applies to EAs and FCs in Texas.
The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Texas brethren may remember that in 2007 Grand Master Tommy Broughton had a campaign that saw him pin on EA and FC pins on those of us going through our degrees. I was lucky enough to receive an EA pin from him at Holland Lodge No. 1 in January and the FC pin...

Have been checking the recruiting boards this month. Looks like the rich will get richer. A&M is beginning to recruit favorably with Alabama and LSU. Georgia is getting better recruits again while Florida is dropping fast. Texas and Oklahoma are going to be hurt as A&M comes back of age...
Here's a valuable tip.

Re: Building Cement - Uncommonly Concrete Masonic
So Mote it Be! Looking forward to your take on this subject that affects both the masonic and profane worlds. There seems to be a crisis afoot and I'm looking forward to your root cause analysis.
