    Filing in for Jr Steward For EA Degree tonignt.

    The degree is being done in "Advanced Chairs" which leaves the JR S. seat vacant. I guess I "volunteered" by showing up to the rehearsals.

    We have an organist who plays during the circumambulation as the chaplin recites the appropriate verse.

    Masonic Tattoos

    Make sure you get the right amount of *points* on the stars. There is a masonic meaning to that.

    I am a new mm any tips

    I am a new master mason also. I am in the process of learning the long form proficiencies from our states jurisdiction before the revisions came out in 2008. I also plan on trying to make the DLIs and GLIs to get the rituals down. Find a Past Master who likes to talk about the craft. Attach...

    new ideas

    I am newly raised and I've been thinking that the younger brothers should step up and engage the older Masons. Too many times have I been to events and you can look across the room as if it were the color spectrum... younger on the left flowing to oldest on the right. Sure we say hi and bye but...

    Does answering himself in a different voice count?

    It's official. My boss is insane.

    He is talking to himself and answering himself. Time to call the funny farm on him.

    Thinking about establishing new fundraiser.

    A lodge in our district did that last year. I was not a mason at the time but I shot at the club often. I wonder if a fashion show would fly.

    Do you use Masonic influence on your own website?

    Re: Do you use Masonic influence on your own websi Companies that sell masonic regalia are in the business of selling to brothers. I would go so far as to make sure the company I am buying from is owned by a brother if I'm going to be purchasing something that I'm going to display or use as a...

    The Lodge vs The Building - A Rant

    I apologize. My reply was not in the spirit of the original post. I read it quickly while at work.

    The Lodge vs The Building - A Rant

    We just spent upwards of 20k to repair our lodge. Our present building was constructed in 1921. There was a fire so some remodeling had to be done in the west but that is it. (The chair and Senior Warden's table still has the black marks from the fire) We ripped up the carpet, painted the...

    Grand Lodge of New Jersey. Square and Compass day.

    do you carry "masonic" business cards?

    I replied in another thread and it got me thinking about my first encounter with another Mason outside of Lodge. It was at a local gun Club that I frequent. We BS' d about everything but Masonry except what Lodge I belonged to and what Lodge he belonged to. As he was about to leave for the...

    Are You A Traveling Man?

    Im on the fence about this kind of topic. There are some that are fun to razz your lodgemates with but I wouldn't use them on the outside. I simply ask, are you a mason/brother?. I did however have someone shout out, "hey H...!" at a local gun club the other day. I have a S/C key chain...

    Grand Master of Florida Bans Certain Religions

    Not to split hairs but lets say for arguments sake my religion says there are 5 supreme beings. The wording of that question is amigiuos enough to say yes without lying. The question has to be worded as such to specify one god only IMHO. "Do you believe in the existence of *only* one...

    Music in Lodge

    On a lighter note: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ja2BzVFpP8Q Edit: The lodge was not at labor. (note the VSL) so no issues with the guys having a good time. p.s. this is not my lodge.
