I don't use bumper stickers, but if I did this would be it.

I have a Washington Nationals sticker on my car.

Because I felt the need to show affinity to an organization of people making millions, to whom I'm already giving several hundred bucks a year.  Yeah.

My vehicle displays only my school and masonic affiliations. My best friend's jeep, on the other hand, has loud bumperstickers warning flag burners, pro-choicers, and something to do with the rebel flag. Of all of these, the one that someone chose to deface was a fan sticker for the german national soccer team.

masonic affiliations

How did that group go from gold standard for secret society that probably rules the world to bumper stickers in just a few decades? Nothing against the masons, the few I know go in for a lot of good charitable work etc. it's just that the phrase 'Masonic bumper sticker' sticks in my language processing centres.

I've been losing cans for no probable cause. The point of the whole 'anonymous reasonless karmic can' system is lost on me.

Does one still get excommunicated for joining the masons?

No, the pope dropped that battle a long time ago. There are many catholic members.

I live across the street from a former Masonic temple. My neighbor told me it started going downhill about 30 years ago, with less and less members, and the ones who did show up were doddering up and down the sidewalk. Then they ended up having to rent it out for kids dances and stuff like that, and then they had to sell it. I think the Masons have fallen on hard times.

I think I've mentioned here before that I got a small bursary from the Masons at my graduation, right?  Anyway, when I went up at my grad ceremony, the mason guy handed me an envelope, shook my hand, and whispered in my ear "the envelope it empty.  I forgot the check at home.  We'll mail it to you, okay?"  It's interesting that a secret society gave me an empty envelope at a ceremony.... I can't help but think it was a signal that I don't understand.

I worked for a while with a guy who was a DeMolay, and presumably later a Mason. He took it pretty seriously, but we pretty much thought he was a clown. He's very active and high-up in Alaska politics now - he's run a few campaigns for Stevens and his ilk ('his ilk' always sounds bad to me).

Shit, I guess being a Mason works.

my grandfather was a Mason back in the day-- but he gave it up because you couldn't be a Catholic and a Mason, and my grandma is really Catholic. So, he dropped that shit like a bag of used syringes, apparently.

I work in a former Mason Fraternity.  It is a wicked cool building, but they ended up having to sell it to the University.

In other words, yeah, hard times for the Masons.
