Pledge of Aluminum:

I pledge allegience to the aluminum
Of French room O131.
And to the Almondites
For which they stand.
One cult,
Under the Almond.
Individual,
Without coconut or macadamia!
Tasks of the Ancient Almondite Induction Ceremony:

1.  Begining introductory Pledge:
"I, [insert full name], pledge my brain,
My heart, my soul, and Spain
To the Almighty L'Amande Sacree
Who will forever take good care of me
So long as I walk upon His nutty Earth.

2.  A ritual Almond Slash is performed:  A V-handshape (closed) is brought quickly down (opened), making an elongated almond shape (closed).

3.  The Ancient Serving of 2 whole almonds each are consumed by both the Hopeful and the Elder Almondite.  They may be by themselves, or in a yummiliicious candy.  IE, Hershey's Almonds, et cetera.  NO BOILED!  I REPEAT, NO BOILED!!!

4.  Presentation of a shrine dedicated to L'Amande Sacree that shows in an arty way how much you are devoted to the Lord.  (In order to keep things valid, proof by way of picture is required to be sent to ALL Elder Almondites for verification.  If you do not know one personally and still wish to join our legions, email a picture of it to [email protected] along with your name and vital info.  After being inducted into the Almondite C.U.L.T., you must keep your shrine where you can see it every day for worship, such as in your room, car, locker, et cetera.)

5.  Anti-Macadamiast blessing.  (Macadamia OUT!)

6.  Almondite Blessing.  (Almond IN!)

Once the above are complete, you are accepted into the folds of Almondism.  Enjoy.
