Pearl Harbor Day

22 Warriors embraced the early morning with a solid workout.

Surprise Attack! – Parking lot mumble chatter promptly halted with the call of 10 burpees.

Mosey around to the side of the school for COP.

-Invisible jump rope (imaginary jumps ropes for those with their eyes closed)

-Arm Circles to summon the cat burglar to no avail

-Russian Soldiers

-Slow Don Quixotes

Mosey to the grass next to the blacktop for lazy 11s – WWII situps and dive bombers.

On to the blacktop for Session One of 4 Corners – For the four battleships damaged in the attack.

  • Lt Dan’s (audible called for 30s/40s to go to copperhead squats)
  • Box Cutters
  • Merkins
  • LBC

Round 1 = 10 rep, 2 = 20, 3 = 30, 4 = 40.

Mosey to the track for Session Two of 4 Corners – For the four battleships sunk in the attack.

  • Dips on the bars
  • Derkins
  • Leg lifts
  • Pull Ups

10 reps, 2 rounds

Mosey back to the flag for boo-yah merkins – 16 rep.

YHC took us out with a moment of silence.

NMS:

Perfect weather today:  Cool and dry is about as good a it gets.

Invisible jump rope was a hit through some of the Pax were clearly showing their advanced skills from their days of recess in their youth.  Dive bombers made a rare, if not virgin, appearance and result in sustained grunts by the Pax thorughout.  Hardywood knows them as the Angry Porpoise and I am pretty sure Saab’s technique was accompanied with a “tongue out maneuver” ala Gene Simmons.

YHC called an audible on the Lt Dan’s otherwise we would still be doing them with the sun rising.  There truly is too much of a good thing.

A shout out to the boys of the 100k and a 1/6 of a shout out to the Bear Creek team.  Kidding aside, both represented well achieving their personal goal and having a great time.

Ronnie’s early departure was noted by Swirly.  Seems that immaculate file now has a blemish.

Announcements:

  • Wong Gonzalez today for lunch.
  • Slurpee’s VQ is Monday at Hoedown.  Come on out to support him and see what this AO has to offer.  VQs are fun for all.

ABT,

Lockjaw

    Solid Q Lockjaw. The best purpoise is a purposeful purpoise. The worst purpoise is a verbose purpoise with no purpose.

    Congrats to the 100K warriors.

    Well done Lockjaw!

    Runner up comment of the day was Splinter’s when everyone was totally confused by what the hell a divebomber was and Lockjaw explained.

    “Oh, a divebomber!”

    MVP comment of the day was Saab’s about how he normally gets a “tap on the shoulder” after a he’s been divebombing for a while. #NiceSeinfeldReference

    Forgot to include the honorable mention comment:

    Hardywood apropos of nothing immediately after Lockjaw’s moment of silence, looks me in the eye:

    “Hey do you know what ROLAIDS is?”

    Yes Hardywood, YES I DO.
