An Imaginary Conversation
“Hail, stranger!”
“I consider a stranger a friend I haven’t yet met!”
“Then may I offer my hand in token of brotherly love and friendship?”
“That is a strange handshake, what is this?”
“A ‘Grip’!”
“A grip of what?”
(the requisite and appropriate exchange ensues)
“Tell me then, since you are a stranger to these parts, have you traveled far?”
“I’ve come from the far west and my path has been a rough and rugged one, but having met a Brother here on this level ground, the journey has been worth the effort.”
“But surely you must be weary, having traveled so far!”
“True, indeed, and I would rest and refresh myself amongst my Brethren. May I join you and yours when you next meet?”
“If it were solely up to me, I would welcome you with open arms, but first I must see some documentation to assure myself that your Jurisdiction and mine are in amity.”
“See here, this is my card that clearly shows I am in good standing with my Brethren back home.”
“Alas, here is a problem, for we do not recognize this body as being regular and well formed. I am afraid we must end this conversation and part ways.”
“If then, my Brother, we must part ways, can we at least part upon the square?”
“Agreed!”
