    Amateur Radio / Geocaching / Motorcycling

    You guys really should think about marking your containers very carefully and clearly if you are geocaching in an urban setting. In today's hypersensitive age, an uninformed person finding an odd tube or box bolted to a park bench/water fountain/road sign could result in the bomb squad getting...

    T-Shirts

    We do a raffle to fund our scholarship. Last year was for a barbecue pit. This year's raffle was derailed by the hurricane. I think Grand Lodge limits the number of times per year a lodge can conduct them.

    Role Call!!!!!

    Tolerance 1165 (Beaumont) is doing quite well. We have candidates rolling through pretty regularly, and we avoided any severe hurricane damage. On a personal level, I've been BUSY! Haven't even been online here for a month.

    Question...

    It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside? Seriously, I enjoy both the philosophical message and the fellowship. That is what it means to me.

    A Sad Sight

    Things are vibrant in our lodge, in spite of several other lodges in the same community. Rural lodges in the vicinity are hurting though. I agree with wearing jewelry, being receptive to questions, etc. However, in conjunction with that visibility we should be setting an example...

    No Women in the Frat but Could we Share our Rituals

    There is already just such an organization. It's called Order of Eastern Star. I tend to be pretty open minded about progressive ideas, but I don't think making Masonry fully co-ed is a step in the right direction.

    Who's going to be the new President & Vice President?

    Along those lines, I wish Bob Barr had a shot at winning. Unfortunately, I don't think enough Americans are yet sufficiently put out with the status quo of the Republican and Democratic parties to give a third party a serious chance in a national election.

    Multiple Lodge Memberships

    My dual membership was a result of relocating to another area with my job. There are four lodges in the town where I currently reside, with many more in the immediate vicinity, but I have found that membership at just one keeps me plenty busy!

    Pancake Breakfast

    Not a bad idea. It sounds less labor-intensive than a barbecure or hot links dinner as a fund raiser, plus if nobody shows up you aren't stuck with a lot of unsold inventory.

    Have you worn your white leather apron?

    I haven't thus far, but I wouldn't be opposed to it for the appropiate special occasion.

    Women Freemasons

    That kinda goes against the whole obligation, doesn't it?

    Officer Installation

    That's impressive.
