MR. WATSON: I go over and
put my hand on the door, and what's it made of?
STUDENTS: Logs.
MR. WATSON: Now, which
way are those logs going? Up and down. Painted in red letters is "nonprofit." I am still painting you a
picture. It says "nonprofit."
Is it hand painted? You high maintenance people, is it engraved? Tell me what
it looks like. Tell me.
STUDENT: It's stenciled.
It has nice little wooden letters.
MR. WATSON: Holy smokes. That
is high maintenance!
(Laughter.)
MR. WATSON: It's
stenciled. Son, what's it look like to you?
STUDENT: Just
spray-painted.
MR. WATSON: There you go.
What color?
STUDENT: Red.
MR. WATSON: It's his
visual. Guys, how do you think people have photographic memories? How do you
do that? It's a picture. You create a picture.
Give me two characteristics
of a fraternal organization.
Walk up the mountaintop
with me. What do we see?
STUDENTS:
Lodge.
MR. WATSON: Put your hand
on the door. What does it say on the door?
STUDENTS:
Nonprofit.
MR. WATSON: I go inside.
In a triangular position, placed about the altar, are three high-backed
velvet chairs with old men with water buffalo hats on. Just like a Fred
Flintstone or a Jackie Gleason. You see that?
STUDENTS: Yeah.
MR. WATSON: Who are those
guys?
STUDENTS: Officers.
MR. WATSON: Those are the
elected officers.
Hanging over the altar by
a little string is a small animal as a sacrifice, like a ferret. And they got
the voodoo needles going in it. Can you see that? Can you see it? He's
spinning a little bit. And the old men are dancing around this thing. Those
are the rituals.
STUDENT: He's alive?
MR. WATSON: Do you want
the ferret to be alive? Guys, it's your visual! You have to make up a visual.
