A Mason was having trouble with his ritual, and was telling
a fellow mason in a pub one day, and his friend said I know
a bloke down the road who sells Parrots who know the ritual
and prompt you when you have any trouble.
So the next day off he went to the shop, and the man said "yes
I have three", he pulled a curtain across and there were
3 parrots, one with a master mason's apron on, one with a masters
apron, and one with a grand lodge apron on.
The man said "how much is the one with the masters apron
on."
"$2000.00 and he knows all the ritual including the inner
workings, and will always prompt you when you get stuck."
"No", he said "to expensive", "what
about the one with the MM apron on."
"Well, that one is $1,000.00 and he knows all the ritual,
but not the inner workings, but will always prompt you when
you learning it."
"No to much, what about the one with the grand lodge apron
on."
"You can have him for $10.00."
"Why so cheap, he must know all the ritual and the inner
workings?"
"Oh yes, he knows all the ritual, but when you make a mistake
all he does is sit there and go, tut! tut! tut!!

While visiting a newly initiated brother at home one day, the
new brother's wife took me to one side and said her husband
had started behaving very strange since joining.
I asked in what way?
She said that he locks himself in the toilet for hours on end
mumbling to himself with his little blue book.
Later that evening I turned the talk to lodge, and asked him
how he was getting on.
Oh fine was his reply.
I asked him about his behavior and if there was anything wrong.
No, was his reply.
So why read the book there?
Well he said "Its the only TYLED room in the house"....
