    Summer Tour yielded no tourists.  Perhaps it was the lack of a Q on the sheet, or Handshake on assignment.  Either way it was a fine-ish day to put in some miles.  If you consume plastic, make sure it’s macro.  And if you travel back to the 1970s buy me a few shares of Berkshire Hathaway class A stock.

    YHC had an itch to get up and head downrange for a change of scenery.  That change and a chance to see our good buddy Hardywood put an extra pep in the step this morning.  Boo Boo’s 4 corners quickly squashed that pep.  If anyone travels to St. Louis, mind your own lawn and keep an eye out for the ladies of the night.  In Cleveland take cover between the hours of 1300 and 1500.

  • A Better Offer

    Our resident Brogi got a better offer, so YHC did his best impression. We hanged, we reached, we catted, we cowed, we pigeoned, we cobra’d, we licked our own balls, among other things. Air was crisp and fresh with Attila on assignment.

    After the PAX commiserated about the hills and how much they sucked, Handshake shared the news that his wife’s 11 year old cousin passed away over the weekend after a long hard cancer battle.  That really puts things into perspective.  We do hard things daily, but nothing could be as hard as saying goodbye to a child.  We pray for mercy in that family’s grief and peace as they trust in God’s plan and provision.  Let’s approach each day with gratefulness for what we have and not take a single breath for granted.

    Determined to ruin partner and throuple numbers, Blank Space joined us a few minutes into the COP.  Undeterred, we pushed on and were glad to have him.  Apologies for repeating a few things from Saturday for the boys at both.  Kudos to Handshake and Senor for triple-ish dipping.  Good luck to USA vs. Bosnia and Heerzzuyraiia.  Kinda ridiculous to play 1 v 2, but let’s go!

    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.
