} Mr. Brown made several TV appearances last night after a couple of
} primaries....

} Does one of America's unions have major Masonic ties, so strong that their
} symbol is a Masonic symbol?
Uh... That's a hard one. Maybe a stone-mason's union?
} (extra Mason watch - one of Heironymous Bosch's paintings from the 14th
} century has this odd little fellow with a bird's head, and he, too, is
} wearing the ol' compass and square on his chest.)
Restrain yourself. This Masonic conspiracy stuff will drain you and
leave you vulnerable prey to the Identity Xtians or the Aluminum
Bavariati. The "odd little fellow" is just Bosch's interpretation of
Papageno from Mozart's _Magic Flute_ -- obviously. Don't let the
chronological incompatibility worry you. There's a perfectly good
explanation for that; you've just read it and you don't remember the
details, but now you're perfectly happy that everything's been explained
to your satisfaction.
Glad to help.
