    Galaxy S3 or iPhone 5 (4S)?

    I am going to upgrade to iPhone 5 for the simple reason I don't want to rebuy ally apps again. I have a good chunk of money into my iTunes and I don't want it to go to waste. The downside I don't like about the apple products is you don't have the option of flash. I am also not thrilled about...

    The Elks are just another fraternal organization. Just like the Odd fellows or Moose is another organization. They are not related to Freemasonry. Klitzners, Has a line of Elk related offerings that mirror the merchandise made for Masonic organizations. Basically they just replace one logo for...

    Reading Minutes of Previous Meetings

    I visited a Knights Templar Commandery once where the recorder read the minutes of the previous meeting, the minutes from previous degree work and the entire minutes of the recent Grand Commandery proceedings word for word in an in air conditioned lodge room. Needless to say that was a long...

    My Friend and Brother Nathan Brindle

    I have known Nathan for years. We were both members of the Knights of the North. He is a very smart man and is a great organizer. I cant think of too many people who could be the secretary of two lodges at the same time plus the Secretary/treasurer of the Masonic Society. Add on top of this...

    Masonic Wedding

    A PM once said to me the day you are raised is your one day when you are the star. Your graduation you share with your entire class. Your wedding is all about her, you are just there as supporting cast. That is why he was against raising multiple men during the MM degree. I know this has...

    Pennsylvania MM Degree in Indiana in September

    It is in Anderson, Indiana. About 30 miles north of Indy on I-69. It should be worth the trip. They have a beautiful Masonic temple there.

    The Templar Uniforms

    I personally would like too see Commanderies adopt the summer uniform if we have to stay with the military style garb. It's cheaper and more comfortable. One time during a break in our Grand Commandery sessions we went to lunch at a deli in downtown Indy in full uniform. People kept coming to...

    The Templar Uniforms

    In my previous Grand Commandery most Commanderies wear the standard Templar uniform or the cap and mantle but one commandery, Raper Commandery #1 still wears the old school long coat. We also have a special unit called Levant Precipetry which wears the original Templar outfits for degree work...

    My last wedding was a Knights Templar wedding. The ceremony was conducted in our assylum by a past commander who is a retired Methodist minister. It was a great evening. The reception was held at the local Shrine temple

    One thing I've learned about being W.M.

    You have to be a peacemaker with the wisdom of Solomon and a deal maker with the cunning of a politician I entered the East with an agenda and slate full of ideas. None of them got implemented. A PGM once told me "There are two great days in a mans Masonic career. One is the day he is...
