Do you even fitness, bro?

YHC is working on his fitness and his #CarpexChallenge so after making sure his passport is valid he hit up the ole Q sheet and got on for DZ. Swung by and grabbed Open Out so we could take turns driving and let the other one sleep. I love road trips! Upon arrival we had to check our calendar. This was Friday, right!?! Empty lot. Soon enough the PAX rolled in. [Read More]

REFINERY lesson in Action

Men in these parts have gotten quite comfortable in recent weeks. Ma Bell and protege PBX had been sporting their “wife beaters” in true Kevin Bacon style.
