Mark, I think that is great. I have to remember that.

In our prayers.

I go for all these reasons and then some. I would like to see those that don't come at least make it four times a year to a stated meeting and try to participate in degree work. It's not much when you consider those that are active are keeping the doors open. If you are serious about Masonry...

Looking to leave where I am at. In another state right now close by, but want to work at Fort Hood (family is there) or immediate area. I worked in IT in the commercial world (30 years) and 3 years with Army TRADOC experience with TS clearance. Need to make contact with someone who can assist...

And I understand the Mexican Lodges are Scottish Rite based.

I no longer have TV in my house, I watch DVDs. Sad, yes, but TV went down hill. I enjoyed watching commercials because I would critique them and I must say some really hit the mark. I always felt that I wanted to be the person to judge them for the CLEO award. Silly, but then again I always felt...

Joined the SR, but I understand it it the YR is where the MM degree is completed. I am also told that it is the YR that makes more sense in America and not the SR. So, I must say take your time and keep asking questions and don't be in a rush.

I like this idea of Masonry where you spend time in each degree before being advanced. American Masonry and their bodies are extremely fast in making MMs and SR 32 degree. Perhaps this is one our problems here in America (too easy).

Fraternity is what it is and no place for a woman. Sorry, some may like to hear this, but why do we think we need to bust things down in life to fit all. I believe everybody should have their own space.

To be placed upon my coffin with my earthly remains......

Amen Brother. Hear you on that one!

Hey, we use candles where I am at. Love them. So much more interesting to look at.

That's great! I like to think that there are Brothers who will learn and who enjoy the work. Keep it up.

MY Brother. I know what you are saying about being on-call as there was a time I was on-call 24x7x365 minus vacations, but if I needed to advance I would take a vacation day to see I was not interrupted. I have no idea how you have to learn your work to advance in your jurisdiction, but where I...

I wish membership was contingent upon showing up (if able to do so) to a stated a few times a year. I wish dues fit the times. I wish we were more friendly to those that comes through the doors for the first time. I wish more participation with ritual from the Brethren.
