Adieu alt.freemasonry one last time, and try as you will, I will not
return to this place, for as Brother Benjamin Franklin observed: "If
you lie down with dogs, you will arise with fleas." I shall re-emerge
in soc.org.freemasonry under an assumed name, saved from the
harassment and bullying of the criminals, scoundrels and wastrels I am
loathe and embarrassed to call brethren.
Ed King and Gene Goldman, Tom Acousti and Joe Swick will not be
present there. Well certainly the first two morally bankrupt gentlemen
will not be there. These 'gentlemen' know only too well where they are
unwelcome. And now. of course, Sam 'Jackboot' Schwartzman has
irredeemably blotted his s.o.f coffee book.
I should warn JB, in the spirit of friendship, that his
contentiousness with brethren is attracting no high praise in the
locker rooms of s.o.f. Be counselled by Proverbs 26:11 my comrade and
fellow countryman: "Just like a dog returning to its vomit, the stupid
one is repeating his foolishness."
So, I bid you all, a hearty farewell, and leave you ALL: Mason,
non-Mason, Anti-Mason, Troll and Lurker with these especially
time-honoured adages as set forth in the New World Testament:
"Where there is no wood the fire goes out, and where there is no
slanderer contention grows still. "
-- Proverbs 26:20
