Pause for 7 burpees to celebrate Black Lung’s arrival as per AOQ edict

Mary at Startex.
MOLESKINE: Had a great crew of DR/WL out at Titan representing Chicago, Dallas, California, and Franklin TN. A lot of pressure on Q to make sure folks get in a good workout. Intentionally stayed in front of Parthenon so our guests could experience a pretty cool AO view.

COT: Prayers for Aurora, Polly, Mark and those unnamed aloud in our hearts. Prayers for reason and compassionate leadership in our world.
