    Pros and Cons of Consolidation

    Move on? Oh, I can not only beat the dead horse, but stuff it and put it on a stand for admits.

    Pros and Cons of Consolidation

    Not necessarily. Subs in East Lancs are different than Cheshire

    Pros and Cons of Consolidation

    I am a member of a national GL. It offers no inherent benefits. You would have one more layer between you and GL; you would be that much more detached from the decision making process. This suggestion is sometimes driven by dislike for the policies of a particular GL. Those policies...

    Amended and Restated Compact

    That is the usual subject in the US. It may also cover other issues, as with the Home GLs concordat.

    Well, I guess I just moved down in the grouchy rankings

    The requirement to be an officer was dropped sometime ago

    Introduction

    National Sojourners was once limited to Officers. We went through the same discussion during that change. I suspect the organization will eventually be opened up to all ranks, as fewer Officers (well, fewer anyone) now join Freemasonry. We have any number of bodies for which the...

    GPS Locations

    It would be a life work to do for the US, and the technology may change by then. I thought someone else was doing an app?

    Samsung vs. iPhone

    I got rid of my Samsung that I use in the UK, and got another iPhone. Life is good again

    Cabela's 1913 shotgun tells its own story

    For clarification, Story Lodge No. 4 is not the oldest established Freemasons in Utah. It would be the first lodge established by the Grand Lodge

    Non active members wearing rings etc

    I can't answer for your jurisdiction, but in mine, he is still a Mason, just unaffiliated. Many jurisdictions will place limits on his participation. In Utah, he is considered a drone in the beehive of Freemasonry.

    Favorite Degree?

    We have fun in our Mark Master Lodge (Keystone), hamming it up a bit.

    Fountain Pens

    Yes, I do, having learned to use them as a boy. I quite like Cross, bit one of my best is a cheap one from WH Smith.

    Reform Freemasonry

    I prefer overly lit to overlighted. Feels better to say

    Prince Hall Lodge Running a Strip Club In Maryland

    Brethren: subsequent review has shown that this was not a lodge activity, but a former member using the Lodge name.

    newly initiated brother

    Welcome.
  20. Glen Cook

    What should we do with newly made Master Masons?

    Yes, it would be. Luckily, that wasn't done.
