Today’s History Lesson: ON THIS DAY (June 13th) in History
1920 US post office department ruled that children may not be sent by mail
1966 Miranda Rights were created
1967 First black Supreme Court justice Thurgood Marshall was nominated
1970 the Beatles Let It Be album went #1 for 4 weeks

1983 US launched Pioneer 10, the first spacecraft to leave the solar system
1996 Guinea pigs were distinguished from rodents
1999 Saddam Hussein issued a decree that 18year old + beggars in public places would be imprisoned.
2011 the Goodyear BLIMP crashed. The pilot, Mike Nerandzic, dived down low enough to save everyone but himself.
Thang 1: B.L.I.M.P.S.
PAX moseyed to the short loop in order to honor the Goodyear Blimp and its heroic Pilot Mike.
B – burpees
L – Iron Mike Lunges (to honor to the Pilot)
I – Imperial Walkers
M – Merkins
P – Pickle Pounds & Pickle Pointers (Lexicon only, Don’t google that)
S – Squats
Owing to the date of June 13th, we attempted 6 rounds of BLIMPS 13 reps on each exercise with a short loop (1/3 mile) lap in between. Thanks to Numbtucks for critiquing everyone’s form #ironshartsiron. Barney and QIC unsure of what round we were on. Who knew YHC couldn’t count?
Overall, we, like the Goodyear Blimp and its Pilot, did not make it.
Thang 2: Let it be Merkins
Mosey back to the parking lot for some Mumblechatter-filled celebration of the Beatles #1 hit album Let it be. Each time “Let it be” was say, PAX did a Merkin.
