It's "masonry." A masonary is someone who tries to convert natives in Africa.
*No, no that's missionary, as in yer basic flat out sex posture. . . masonary is one of those guys with the weird secret rituals and the little medallion on his trunk with the compass dividers. That's how they recognize one another, they cruise parking lots looking at car trunks. . .. go figure.. . this bit about the secret handshake is all nonsense. . .. now the boy scouts have a secret handshake, but you don't want them doin yer fireplace!!!
