I was just in the car driving somewhere about a half-hour ago, and I noticed that I was speeding as usual to keep with traffic flow. It is the norm. And I thought, it begs the question: If the written law states a speed limit, but the unwritten code of societal behavior says to ignore it, would...

LOL! :lol: It was basically a history lesson for the local lodge. The elderly Mason who met me up there casually asked me some questions about my background, told me a bunch of stuff about the different parts of the lodge, I expressed some surprise that the symbol for the Eastern Star (lady...

I can't believe I'm just NOW noticing this thread! Thanks, everyone. :)

It is really interesting that this should come up on the board right now, since I made arrangements on Friday to go here in about another 5 minutes from now to tour the local Masonic lodge in preparation to join.

True enough - ya got me. :D I used to be LG, but I've slipped a bit.

Slavery, in and of itself, should not be a racially sensitive issue - almost every people on the planet has been enslaved at some point, and on the flp-side, almost no one alive in the countries you're probably playing D&D in has actually been a slave. But the memory is still strong of American...

True enough. I could, frankly, care less about what does or doesn't offend you at this point. But what you suggest - namecalling - would be against board rules. Good day, sir.

I have neither the time nor the inclination to respond to the rest of your, um, verbose reply, but I will respond to this, if only to clarify to others reading through the thread. She was relevant, in my part of the conversation at least, from a 'I'm a player and this is the mechanics of how my...

I won't debate all that you just said, except for to say four things: 1. I certainly meant no disrespect to S'mon - I was actually very careful NOT to be disrespectful to anyone on the board - and I really don't appreciate your assumptions about my intentions. And I should add here that I while...

S'mon - You do realize that anyone who ever gives their faith any thought (and no, this isn't an insult - I think you and most, if not all, of the people on this board would be among those) really ends up choosing their religion, or at least the way they practice it, based on compatibility...

Since you have the chance to build your Paladin from the ground up: I would LOVE to see the Paladin class reworked so that the Paladin gains his powers from inner determination to work toward certain causes that are the core of what makes humanity (or elvenkind, etc) worthwhile - True Love...

A very enjoyable read, Shilsen. Excellent. :)

I like: My Cleric prays to his god for spells, but his god prays to Eric Noah. It is a little wordy, though, isn't it?

I may have mentioned this before, but: Eric Noah loves Emerald's Nuts. That is all.

This is, in fact, how a neighbor managed to kill my son's cat - an event that caused him a great deal of pain, and me no small amount as I quite liked the cat also, and took him quite a while to get over. (If he has, entirely.) The rest of what would be this comment will be omitted out of...

Oh, right! I'm glad someone rez'ed this thread so I didn't forget! I hope you have a good day, Teflon Billy! Keep it mad pimpin', dawg. :cool: (Yes, I know this joke has been done before, but it is a new year, and it bears repeating. :lol: )

No, really! For truly - I AM Torm the True! "Ho, ha-ha, guard, turn, perry, dodge, spin, ha, thrust THWACK!" Oh, well, the quarterstaff was never My thing, anyway. ;)

Excellent memory, Frukathka. Mystra, btw, has asked Me to pass on to you that She bades you to spend the next several seasons composing a 12 part operatic cycle about the Magick of unicorns. She intends to present it as a gift to Mielikki, and you will be graded on your work. Severely. :lol:

Well, that's cool and all, but I think you misunderstand - I'm not a loyal servant OF Torm. I am Torm. :cool:

I can't believe I completely failed to mention Jeopardy and Lingo in my previous post!
