    Whether it’s a hand gesture or a comment about being juicy, Salt Lick has a knack for making the COT uncomfortable.  Some of us talked bourbon this morning.  It’s SpiritsPalooza today and tomorrow for those in the know.  Happy hunting.

    YHC made a plan.  That plan required pre-prep (pumping up a basketball and planting it at the AO).  Oyster and Gumbo said f*ck your plan, as they stepped to the line with ice water in their veins and nailed the first 2 free throws of Burpee Ball.  YHC had planned on a solid 10 minutes or more of Burpees.  Plans sometimes require modification on the fly.  Or perhaps the best plan is no plan at all, right Handshake?  Special thanks to Snuff for planning and executing 2nd F coffee.

    Third Friday of the month is now Bring Your Dog to work day at Currahee.  Just don’t do so if you’re an FNG.  Or maybe do.  Salt Lick has an interesting new way of conveying his name during the COT.

  • Befuddled Yogi

    With Last Call mixing up the AM/PM, YHC stepped in to fill his massive shoes and took a lot of heat for using a kneeling pad on top of my usual mat. When you’re on your knees as much as YHC, you need a little padding. Wait, I mean when you’re as old as YHC. Shut up losers.

    Backblast title has nothing to do with anything in the workout, but YHC somehow got on the topic of wrasslin at coffee and was whisked away to the good ol’ days when we ran the high school halls telling everyone to “Suck It” with a crisp crotch chop.  Also showed the boys my 4th grade class photo rocking my favorite Bushwhackers t-shirt.  Don’t ask about my Koko B. Ware t-shirt, still hurts.  Lastly of note, Wojo has partied with the Nature Boy and lived to tell the tale.

    Not sure anyone did the route 100% as prescribed, but it was fun to try.  The cut-through to Bandy ain’t what it used to be.  Sippy took a tumble, but no injuries reported thankfully.  Hitch may have a new spokesperson for Portadash.  Next time we’ll do Bandy Clockwise for a spicy little treat.

  • A Bro Code Trip Through Norway via Jordan

    Last Friday of the month means Bro Code, but it doesn’t have to be The Bro Code.

    Fun fact, you can get to Norway via Jordan and Romania or something like that, but you must start in Northern Virginia.  UpChuck has some mediocre jokes and a pretty good one about Horticulture.

  • No Bat Signal

    No Last Call, no bat signal, but somehow 3 knew that 60 degrees meant Broga. Dogs, Cobras, Cats, Cows, Scorpions, and of course ball lickers among other positions and movements were performed.
