The 33rd Degree is through the Scottish Rite and has a long process involved. If you look at this page
You can see there there are even special hats and rings for the 33rd degree.
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

No wonder I never ran into a 33rd degree.

move out and draw fire
My stepmother sent me all my father's and grandfather's Masonic stuff (the Bible in code, etc). I actually felt wrong looking at it.
There was also this really old cup with some dried brownish stuff in it. I threw it out.

I have my grandfather's trowel, my grandmother's rings and a portrait of my great grandfather in the oddest Cap'n Crunch outfit you ever saw.
Plus, just watched a faux doc "Unlocking the secrets of Angels and Demons" that is actually a promo for the Dan Brown book (worst ending evah), but has interesting bits of tid ala "Friday the 13th marks the slaughter of the Knights Templar." (The survivors went on to form the Masons?) Huh. Did. Not. Know. That. (and don't actually believe it)

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Finally caught up after being gone for the weekend.
So so sorry to hear Beverly's news. Thinking of you and your family.
{{{Sean and S}}} I hope she's feeling better soon.
Yay for Nora's A! I managed to pull out a B in my stats class. We rock, we do.
Niece and nephew are cute as can be. I want to steal my niece away. We had good bonding. She can't pronounce my name so I am called Toti. So adorable. She cried when they dropped me off at the aiport. Sweet little B. Nephew is wee and cute and cranky. He's got a very different personality than B. He also looks like he's got Deep Thoughts all the time. Like an old guy trapped in an infant's body.

whoo for the B in Stats! You are my hero. I finally decided to not take Stats (mostly because it was hard to find an appropriate class at the place I wanted to take it) and am taking a more low key style data analysis class instead.

Where does the Pentavarit come into this?

This is the widely-told tale. I don't believe it either, but it's a good origin story.

And now, thanks to Veronica Mars, I get slightly icked whenever I picture Steve Gutenberg
You mean his career prior to VM didn't (Diner excepted)?
