And all the garlic will keep the zombies at bay.

You know, this is so much more relevant today that it was when you wrote it I think.

Tom, I will miss you in this capacity. The Grand Lodge has a lot of work to do regarding this very important issue.

In a way though, I am glad they are giving this to the AGM. It should give this position some sense of purpose other than being the glorified chauffeur.

Good Luck, and I hope to see you in lodge. Don't be a stranger!

I smell Accousti poo-poo, and what a disagreeable effluvia arises from it! If this document were from an actual Grand Lodge of Masons it would have included a plan to collect percapita from the zombies and the possible inclusion of some sort of a PPUM (Paid Perpetually Undead Membership) plan. As long as they pay dues, zombies are rampant at most of the Stateds around here. They usually sit in the North with the Past Masters.

Br. Tom,

Your situation in CT is not much different that that in NY. I have served as an Assistant Grand Lecturer (each District has at least one), which basically was tasked to visit each Lodge in the District at least once during his term. That visit was to observe the ritual, make comment where appropriate and report back. We were also to observe the conferral of a degree on a candidate or exemplar in each Lodge each year with no repeats - the Lodge doing this on a three year cycle. This was by the GM's edict.

Fortunately our AGL's seem to have had a better time than your DGL's. We encounter the same problems with "traditions". I guess I would agree with the previous commenter in that it is important that we make every attempt to keep ritual on an even keel - or the ritual will morph into something else entirely.
