I think he means THGTTG, which would obviously stand for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. (Don't know if I spelled that right) > > > > > > > > > That makes a little more sense.

I didn't even know that until they came to his funeral and performed a little ceremony of their own. Judging by my grandfather's character and the characters of his friends whom I recognized in the group, it would be a good group to join. > > My grandfather is a mason too. Luckily, he's still alive so I don't know anything about the funeral ceremony. My granmother has told me about it though. I agree that it would be a good group to join, also based on my grandfather and the friends he has. > > Does anyone really know what the Mason's are all about?
It's a men's organization with a base in religion. There are special uniforms, ceremonies, badges, awards, and social functions. Remotely similar to Boy Scouts, only without the camping. There's a youth version called Demolay, and one for girls called Eastern Star (I think).
