I canna explain the Shriners.
Fezzes and go-carts - what's to explain? I think they're the last bastion of the surrealists.

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Shriners are a branch of Masons. Wouldn't it be Elks wearing the antlers?

If I only had a brain...
Shriners will wear pretty much anything.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What about the Loyal Order of Waterbuffalo? Or the Stonecutter's Union?

Well, sure. But that's unofficial. (I used to be part of a Masonic order.)

I may be behind in my conspiracy theoryology, but I thought that the Illuminati were (supposedly) an anti-Catholic/Protestant/heretical faction whose mortal enemies are the crypto-Catholic Knights of Malta.

What's the current one that has suspicious hush-hush conferences attended by all the high muckey-mucks of various governments? Bilderberg, or something like that?
Yeah Matt - The Bilderberg Group.
The kind of thing that makes me feel okay about my paranoia.
