NMM:

Great work this AM by the PAX as YHC pulled out an oldschool ‘Pon beatdown replete with Rebar and all its friends.  First time to post with Care Bear, he lived up to his name for whatever that means.  Foxtrot with his normal Midwife noises and complaining.  Deep Dish with his usual crushing of the Pull Ups and modification of most everything else.  YHC was in the Drs corner and all 3 of us were struggling.  Felt like I didn’t see Bad Boy until the very end of the Q almost as if he was just having a smoke over there until we Mary’d up…will have to check the surveillance footage.

So, as YHC mentioned, today marked roughly the 4 year anniversary of the birth of Bagger Vance aka ATQ (both of which are acceptable monikers as is BV).  I am forever indebted to 5 Star for the nudge to join and for all the HIM along the way that have made me better and didn’t leave me behind.  There have been way more good times, deep conversations and bonds built than YHC would have ever expected.  I can say that without F3 my life wouldn’t be as full and rich as it is.  Just yesterday, I had two conversations with HIM that I would likely never have known had 5 Star not EH’d me at Belle Meade $4Bux those years ago.

Instead of a sappy or inspiring #WASNOW YHC dug into the vault along with the help of Cambrige Analytica, Breitbart and Alex Jones to come up with some very compelling statistics over the last 48 months and here they are…

# of Burpees:  1,346,988

Great to be a small part of a great thing.  Let’s see how many SadClowns we can EH in ’19 and Give It Away to others as it was Given Away to us.

BH:

7 December at Richland CC leadership lunch hosted by Umbrella, $20/head for lunch buffet…I heard it was all you can eat and the menu is as follows: Chitterlings, Pizza Logs, Corn dogs and all the Fanta (Blue and Orange) you can drink.

YHC,
