When ya come to IN...if we have any degree work going on, we just might dust off some of that Hoosier Mason in ya....
I was honored to deliver the Lecture of the Entered Apprentice Degree last June at ...uh, better not say, since there was no time to get GL of IN permission!When ya come to IN...if we have any degree work going on, we just might dust off some of that Hoosier Mason in ya....
Whew! Almost got caught, there.MUM is the word.........
It's a real 'Let George do it,' situation. They don't want the responsibility of any office, they don't want to learn a lecture, or even any short piece, and they won't come out for degree practice!
But they want to come to the lodge and see quality degree work.

fireman, at least you have 2 weeks to learn your parts. Your WM obviously has confidence in you or he wouldn't have asked.Well....the WM just sent me a text asking if I can do two new parts in the MM degree and guess what I did........I said yes....luckily it isnt a big part....I have until the 29th to learn it.
Yes. In most jurisdictions, it's called the Past Master Degree.??? Can you get a degree in that???
All that being said, Bob, you can't be an authentic secretary until you've held the post five years.As I've gotten more involved in ritual, and now become the DDGL, some members of my lodge are indignant that I am leaving the secretary's desk after only a year. I only took it this year because last year on election night no one else would.
The same brothers become even more indignant when I ask them why they can't be secretary!

Nope, I just shake my head and "think to myself" Damn, you didn't pay attention when I was trying to teach you. Then the WM says, well it's how I'm doing it!! j/k he doesn't realize he's doing anything wrong.Ah. So you know how to shake your finger and say, "That's not how we did it in MY year!"
