- Harlan announces his plans for "edutainment" at the next Lodge meeting
- The statue nazis target Ill. Albert Pike. It's not funny anymore
- Harlan goes on the defense for General Lee (and mis-speaks, Lee has a building named for him at U.S.M.A., not a monument)
- Confederate soldiers were just men like you and I answering the call of their country, otherwise they would be cowards not worth remembering

- A sneak peak of Nick's next blog post
- The merits of high population Lodges vs. low population Lodges (i.e. Traditional Observance)
- Tony shows up, on the run from his protest participation
- Why you should (or shouldn't?) hire another Mason
