Some people get turned off of the Mason's for some very good reasons. That grout really messes with your fingernails, and if you want to get your manicure re-done every day more power to you. I take pride in my personal appearance. Have you ever dropped a brick on your toes?

True that. Masonry is backbreaking work. All those bricks and hods full of mortar. That's heavy stuff. Not very magical, but heavy.

All I know is my wife was in Jobs Daughters, an offshoot of the Masons, and she is mean as heck. I also had Jobs Daughters, all of them underage by the way which made for a boring reception, cater my wedding reception and I think they put a curse on me.

Vandy, my respect for you has just jumped up to eleven. Pussies like Matt and me just go "meow" or look for Haiku. Real men carry hods around. (Or at least know what that means). |

Impressing Stoneunhinged is also "hod" work.
There, that should knock me back down to a two or three.

He just made that word up, and got lucky.
Don't waste your respect on him. Waste it on me.

HA!!! You know, I thought about it last night and I wondered if I had used the word properly. I actually pulled out the dictionary (the old fashined paper kind) and looked it up. I have to admit, I was pretty pleased with myself when it turned it out to be correct. lol!

I always thought a hod was a pretty stupid way to carry bricks around, and I have to confess it still baffles me that people used this thing for so long without coming up with a better idea.
Woke up.

My reception was far from dry! True story, I pretty much quit drinking for years before I got married after a long period of getting faced every day, nothing wrong with that by the way. I did drink at the receiption and got someone to drive us to the hotel where my wife made the brilliant statement "I want to talk to Maureen, why don't you and Ken (who is a drunk) go to the bar?". Now imagine a guy in a tux who just got married walking into a bar full of drunks, they buy him drinks, shots of tequilla to be exact. After several, and I mean several, shots I staggered into the elevator with the knowledge that tequilla goes one of two ways with me, great violence or I get sicker than heck. I got to the room and they let me in. From what the wife told me my eyes rolled back into my head and I started projectile vomiting...they called for towels. I went into the bathroom where my wifes friends had put streatch wrap over the toilet...and the shower head...they called for more towels. I was then shoved into the bedroom, it was a separate room, and the bed had been shortsheeted and the room booby trapped. After hugging the can for awhile I exited the sick phase and entered the violent phase and destroyed that room, Keith Moon had taken over my body!
The bride slept on the couch that night, I was in the short sheeted bed covered in vomit and glass in my tux....we did not have a dry reception....it was a pretty good one. Next I'll tell you why the paramedics were at the reception.... |

Santa, are you talking about your wedding reception? Great story, but what does your wedding reception have to do with masonry?
Inquiring minds want to know. I'm interested myself. Why were the paramedics at the reception? Some ritual gone wrong? Jeff |

Free Masons are a mens club ----> Jobs Daughters is the juniors girls division of the Free Masons ----> I hired the Jobs Daughters to cater my wedding -----> Ross said that since I had Jobs Daughters that my reception was dry, meaning no booze -----> My story indicates that the assumption by Ross was incorrect

Sure.
Way to back peddle there. Using an excuse that is basically unprovable because everyone is too lazy too read the posts in question and will just take your word for it. I see through your lies like butter!

My father in law spent 30 years as a Hod Carrier. It is the second from lowest job on the construction work chart, laboror being last, and is back breaking work. I'll tell you what, that ol' geezer could lay bricks as good as any mason cuz they taught him how.
