    Once or Twice a Month?

    My Lodge has stated on the third Monday. The rest of the Mondays are either degrees or practice. We also have Saturday and Wednesday morning practice or round table. Occasionally we do a degree on Saturday as well. Last month we had three EA degrees back to back on a Saturday morning with...

    Audiobooks

    According to wikipedia (which everyone knows is both true and infallible :wink:): So the original may be out of copyright. This seems to be the case, as the book is available in ebook format from Project Gutenburg, and they only do public domain documents. However, before undertaking such a...

    Audiobooks

    You might also check with your local library for audio books. For instance, the San Antonio Public Library has a large online audio book and ebook library that you can check out books from. You download them with the overdrive program (I believe that it works on i-thingies, but I know that it...

    Your Ring

    Mark, Any chance you could provide a synopsis of this article? I'm not a subscriber, and I'm sure that others here aren't either and would welcome a "cliff's notes" look at it. Thanks, Dow

    Your Ring

    Mason653, I can only offer you the advice that was passed along to me after being initiated: Now I'll add a little something to what I was told. In addition to what you read above, wearing the symbol of a Master Mason when you aren't one (even though you do it to honor your grandfather's...

    Who are you talking to, appzdude? Just curious, as I don't see anything posted recently that looks out of line.

    Your Ring

    Just in case anybody is interested in getting an antique or vintage ring, my cousins have an ebay store that they've been running since they were both in high school, and they handle only vintage and estate jewelry. Here's a link to their blue lodge ring selection: Wilson Brothers Vintage &...

    Leopard

    Welcome, Leopard, and good luck with your search. I think that you'll find El Paso about as different from Germany as imaginable. Sorry that I can't help you out with lodges there, but I used to live in that general part of the state. There's some beautiful country out there. Harsh, but...

    Time Commitment for EA

    This is in large part the reason that the EA takes so long. Not only are you learning the work, you're learning HOW to learn the work. In this day and age, we all tend to depend heavily on the written or online word. Learning mouth-to-ear harkens back to a time when people learned...

    A gentle stroke of the the left wrist from a master mason. What does it mean??

    +1. Either he's messing with you (he is your uncle, after all, and that's what uncles are for. :wink:), or you're reading something that isn't there to read. Also might be that he wants to make sure that you're serious. Time was, according to what I've been told, that a man would get no...

    HTC One

    Blake, I think that you may be a tech junky. Time for an intervention, man. Please surrender all electronic devices immediately. You'll be spending the next 90 days with this device in hopes that you can get yourself clean and become, once again, a useful member of society.

    Petition Investigations Manual

    Here is a link to the current one on the GLoT website. Don't know if it's the same one or not: http://www.grandlodgeoftexas.org/pdf/2011/InvestigationManual.pdf Check that. The links are the same, so I must assume that it is the current one.
