And so it begins…Kryptonite is in the books and off and running (or racing). Pet Sounds and YHC scouted the site out last Monday while Flouride was running surveillance in Israel (that sounds cooler than KoKa Booth but who asked). We went around the lake and in and out of building parking lots. Kryptonite has many options for the PAX to enjoy. Let’s see what happened today: YHC arrives six or seven minutes prior to the launch.

Phoenix closed? Nah...

 Posted on April 2, 2017  |  3 minutes  |  507 words  |  

5 surly scavengers posted at Phoenix, despite the site being closed. There were rumblings on the twitter machine Friday night, with a PAX wondering whether there might be others posting in the morn. Another PAX threw a royal hissy-fit like a 3-year-old whose ice cream cone was just crapped on by a seagull at the beach. Just wipe it off bro, it’s still good. Even though Mister Pissy-Pants decided to fartsack, the other three PAX communicating via twitter showed up to do some work. [Read More]

Ring Around the Fountain

 Posted on March 30, 2017  |  2 minutes  |  279 words  |  

A bold PAX of 25 posted this AM. As Coxswain came cruising in at 05:44:59, the PAX proceeded to the newly erected Town of Cary downtown park fountain and circled up around the fountain. The men were blown away at its beauty and the Q drowned out by its constant flow of running water. Warm-Up: 20 Merkins 10 Good Mornings 20 Side straddle hops The roar of the fountain was so intense that the Q had to audible off of his invisible wenke and ordered the PAX to Academy street for an Indian Run/Hunt for the rock pile.

Within days after turning 49 last year, I started hearing questions like, “Are you still 49?”, and “Shouldn’t you be 50 by now?” Contrary to McCants’ accusations, I have not been 49 for 3 years. Well, 49 no longer. 24 PAX showed up at SnS today to join in the 50th birthday Q celebration.

1 year ago I posted at my 2nd F3 workout and first in CarPex at which I was named by our now NanTan - Ma Bell. It was brutal, we spent the entire workout carrying around brick pavers. I was sore for days! And I was hooked! This has been an awesome year of growth for me physically, spiritually and in service. I am very grateful for the leadership of the F3Nation and specifically all the Q’s in Carpex! [Read More]

24 PAX, YHC forgot one in the list, thanks to Term Paper for the assist! On this date in 1781 the British astronomer William Herschel discovered … well you had to be there. Remind me to ask Sky Blue about this British discovery. I don’t guess I knew it was that old. Seems like you would need a good telescope to be able to see it from that distance. Cheddar Bo was once again late for the workout, which required a long jog to warm up. [Read More]
