MOLESKINE: Our intent with the Throuple was to add a little extra spice to the week. Based on the Slack banter and mumblechatter, I think we succeeded. F3 is so much more than a workout group. If you know someone in need, reach out. If you need a hand, just ask. Seeing Pep for coffee made us all happy (until he felt the need to lift his shirt)
