Climb to 40" - VQ for Mama's Boy

 Posted on July 3, 2020  |  2 minutes  |  267 words  |  

Pre-pledge: Nature called for Snots. Fortunately, he brought a roll of TP. Mama’s Boy shared a silly song on being stranded without TP, and also the proper technique for disposing of waste if one finds himself high up on mountain rock with nowhere to dig: either pack it out or smear thinly. Leave no PAX behind - same with turds in the alpine. Pledge, then mosey to lot 1 for the first thang: - good mornings, arm circles, windmills, plank, merkins [Read More]

 Posted on July 2, 2020  |  3 minutes  |  585 words  |  

Roughly a week ago YHC approached Kwik Stop and was like, “Hey Dude, want to come-up with a workout and Co-Q? at Tin2Iron?” In which the response that I heard was, “heck yeah” (or something like that…). So here we are. I woke-up at 3 a.m. with some major sciatic pain which helped me remember I forgot to charge the surround sound system for today’s beat down which still died in the middle of the workout and I had to plug the speaker into my vehicle.

So it was a week ago that I was reminded of one of my favorite COT traditions, the dipping of the feet in the fountain after Rush Hour. So it inspired me to Q tonight’s edition. Yes, it was a boot camp. It had been a second since I had Q’ed anything other than a ruck, so I thought to myself, what would Frisco do? Some of you might remember, maybe about a year ago, Frisco decided to Q every day for a week. [Read More]

To borrow from the G-File, welcome dear readers (including those who thought this BB was going to be about Sturgill Simpson or, much less likely, John Green’s book): Ever come across a book (or in this case a series of books) that you just wish you had come across earlier in life? That’s basically how I feel about Terry Pratchett and his Discworld Series. I first came across Pratchett’s series a few years ago on a trip to London where the bookshop in the airport is a frequent stop. [Read More]

Dresses and shoes just show up randomly in her stuff and she has no clue where they came from. We jokingly call them gift from the Visa Fairy because…actually, wait a minute… Anyways, this one pair has these backwards pockets. [Read More]
