The moon is 100% full

and the mood is 100% right...

{ Woah. This is an antique Masonic frock coat with a Knights Templar
"Order of Malta" cross pin.  The brooch, which would have likely been given to a new inductee, bears an eagle carrying an olive branch in its talons, under the words "e pluribus unum" (which translates, of course, into: "out of many, one").  It once belonged to a man named Horace and is amazing. }
