This Saturday a lodge in my district is putting on a Master's degree. Yes I know it happens all the time, this one will be different, the Nebraska Grand Lodge Officers are going to do all the work, both first and second sections as well as the Q & A, and the lectures. I think it will be interesting as it will give us a chance to watch the GL officers do the same things we all do. I am really looking forward to it, (I can set and mentally correct them)LOL.:1-wink-grin::1-rolleyes::4-nopity:
Nice. I hope for the best. Our Grand Lodge usually puts on a degree once a year at least, usually at one of our historical Lodge sites.
Will the Grand Lodge actually be opened, or will they open as the subordinate (local) Lodge? In NC (AF&AM), the Grand Lodge cannot actually perform degrees...so that is something subordinate lodges can do, but the GL can't! S&F
As I recall, I got a "standing oh, my God"! For those of you who have never witnessed it, many years ago, I got the slides for the 3rd degree lecture tattooed on various parts of my body. While I do the lecture, I perform a strip tease. I usually make $25-30 in tips.
All right, alright, just foolin' around, Bros. I've never taken my clothes off in Lodge. Jeepers, can't a guy have any fun???
The Grand Lodge Officers did a great job during the MM degree. My District Custodian and I were asked to step in at almost the last minute to take a couple of parts and wouldn't you know it we can't say no. I don't feel so bad --- the Grand Master made a couple of bloopers, the Grand Custodian made a couple of not so obvious mistakes but covered them really well. It wasn't perfect but the two brothers who were raised were impressed, and won't know the difference. All in all it was a great day -- good fellowship, good food, and we made two new Master Masons.
