 Posted on July 6, 2018  |  3 minutes  |  573 words  |  

A few weeks ago YHC and WWW traveled north to the The Farm to help celebrate Spit Valve’s Q Week. The first half was a typical, well executed and thorough beatdown, but the second half was something new for us. It was a game of Ultimate Frisbee, with penalties doled out whenever the frisbee reached the end zone or touched the ground. It was thrilling and on our drive back we agreed we definitely had to bring it back to Carpex. [Read More]

Nostalgia – Football Practice Drills On Saturday during coffeeteria after a brutal Hi-Liter led Phoenix beatdown, Build-A-Bear asks if I am going to FMJ. I stated “yes” enthusiastically. The follow-up question was, would you Q FMJ? I gladly accepted. I thought through what I wanted to do so I could make sure Build-A-Bear would get a good workout and I did not disappoint. What’s funny is no Build-A-Bear to be seen at FMJ. [Read More]

Air was thick this morning but it was a great morning to put in some kettle bell work. We met at the new location on the other side of the park closer to the pull-up bars. As everyone was showing up, I started counting and we ended up with a total of 18 HIMs ready for a workout. I started to panic because the original workout I devised was for about our average 6-10 HIMs. [Read More]

How not to make friends, by FNG Cataracts (that's plural)

The day before my Q at Hell’s Bells I asked the site Qs if running was discouraged. Neither Monkey Nut or Earhart responded, so I naturally assumed that meant running was a great idea. It’s not. I was instantly berated with a verbal assault from the first step. However, sticking to my plan, the later runs actually became a nice break from the punishing kettle bell workout we were experiencing. Crimson even thanked me for running and volunteered to run more if that meant he didn’t have to pick up his KB again. [Read More]

It was your typical Wednesday Morning Buffet. Several arrived early for a little Insomnia appetizer. The Ruckers and the Vespers all grabbed their food to go, and the rest of the SNS crowd dined heavily on Turkish Get Ups, Bropees and Absolution. With some Twerkins for dessert. And although we didn’t start with a Good Morning (sorry Nature Boy) we did end with a Have a Nice day. And a new word was created. [Read More]

YHC is an admitted podcast addict. Sometimes the family gets a little tired of listening to ANOTHER podcast in the car. So I ran across a series of four podcasts done last year, hosted by Hollywood and featuring OBT and Dredd. They talked a lot about how F3 got it’s start and the 3 Fs. In one of the conversations Hollywood mentioned doing the Cooper, and of course I looked it up on the Exicon.
