I talked to a Shriner a while back and he told me how much it cost a day to run one of their hospitals. Amazing, these guys work hard to get enough donations to cover the costs.

no thanks in part to leftist people-haters:

“Shriners threaten to leave town if City Council approves changes to circus animal ordinance. “

an endowment that has lost $2 billion -- a quarter of its value -- in three years

Did Shriners go big on subprime Mortgage Back Securities or financial stocks? That's horrible investment performance.

It is with great sadness I see the decline in numbers of my Masonic Brothers. A man man take a few big steps in his life and Masonic Light being one of them.

Those of you who have contemplated joining I urge you to do so. Becoming a Mason will not make a bad man good but it will make a good man better.
