Odd Fellows Day The first Odd Fellows lodge in the U.S. was established in Baltimore, Maryland on this day in 1819. The official name of the organization is the Independent Order (of) Odd Fellows or IOOF. You can see these initials on many buildings in communities throughout the country. These are the Odd Fellows halls where the local, secret fraternal benefit meets. The first Odd Fellows group started in Great Britain in the 18th century. The main focus of the fraternal order is “to relieve the brethren, bury the dead, and care for the widow and the orphan.†This focus has been broadened through the years to include the principles of friendship, love and truth. The Odd Fellows maintain homes for the aged, the poor, widows and orphans and provide members with financial aid in sickness or death. U.S. national headquarters are located in Baltimore, MD and the membership of the order is more than 1.5 million. Brian Fellow’s Safari Planet – SNL

Happy Friday, please forgive my voice, dealing with a bit of hearing issue on my left side. Either way I still put together a Stew Ramble for today. Please enjoy.
Covering it down to the bone! Just a quick ramble about my excuse of watching Netflix instead of putting together a real episode for today. But that’s the beauty of controlling my own content and it not being “for money”
Already half way to ninety. Some day in history, some songs, a ramble or two and some birthdays. Just another edition of the Stew For You, Stew For Lunch, Stew Ramble.
