No I don't have any friends. They all laughed at the funny costume I wore and they didn't understand the strange handshakes and passwords I use.
But what really put the mockers on it was the way I spoke to them.
When I said "G*** M******" they didn't know I was saying "GoodMorning".

Absolutely he would, trying commit perjury, automatic booting out, if he was a mason in the first place. Quite a few know Masonic ways, doesn't make them one. More rumour rather than fact me thinks.

I have no problem with freemasonary, in a world where everyone wants to know your business, and there are cameras up your arse at every street corner, i think any organisation where you can be with like minded people and discuss whats really on yer mind is ok!, I will point out I am not in this organisation, I have no interest whatsoever, but my father was, he became quite ill, and his so called friends, never even sent him a fucking card, I told him to piss on them, and stop giving his money to them, but by some misguided sense of loyalty he didn,t, he is not with them now though, but as kryten points out, there are different people in different lodges etc, who may have handled it differently, there is no escaping the fact, though, an awful lot of coppers are masons, god knows why.

....I suppose masonic 'favours' are no worse than the nepotism (look that word up, Woopert...) and cronyism (eh, Tone?) we see everywhere else.
People will always bum-kiss and back-scratch for the sake of a bigger TV or car.
