Q: Vector , Natural Ice
PAX: Pep, DintyMoore, CubCadet, bluemule, Hipster, Wolfpack, Cropduster, GameStop, Squatter (F3 Muletown), Spinal Tap, Tim the Toolman, Choo Choo, West Ham (Willy Lohman)
FNGs: None
COUNT: 15
Several months ago, Natural Ice and I were asked to Co-Q a Battle of Playlists Epic Q at Titan. Yet, the two of us are not fighters; hence, we pooled our powers to craft the GREATEST PLAYLIST OF ALL TIME (or GPOAT)! The theme was unstated, leaving the PAX to wonder what was this madness. Kudos to Pep who called the theme by song #3: A Weird Al tribute with the regular songs during Half Vector and the Al parodies for Half Ice.

CONDITIONS: Humid yet perfect

WARMUP: Mosey to front of Parthenon (aka Where the Giant Head Lives), only to find an equally weird potty training set up care of Cocomelon. SSH, LBAC, Overhead Raises, Seal Claps, RLBAC, and Imperial Walkers to start the show.

THE THANG:
Half Vector:
Playlist:
– Smells Like Teen Spirit – Nirvana
– I Love Rock ‘N Roll – Joan Jett & the Blackhearts
– Like a Virgin – Madonna
– Bad – Michael Jackson
– Pretty Fly (for a White Guy) – The Offspring
– Gangsta’s Paradise – Coolio

DORA with partner, who runs counterclockwise around oval: 100 merkins – 200 Dips – 300 Iron Mikes – 400 squats

Half Ice
Playlist:
– Smells Like Nirvana – Weird Al
– I Love Rocky Road – Weird Al
– Like a Surgeon – Weird Al
– Fat – Weird Al
– Pretty Fly for a Rabbi – Weird Al
– Amish Paradise – Weird Al

DORA with partner, who runs clockwise around oval: 100 Amish Merkins (aka Incline Merkins) – 200 Accordion Step Ups – 300 Eat It Crunches (feet on bench) – 400 Tacky High Knees (“exaggerated form encouraged”)

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Night Moves tomorrow at Titan. CSAUP in August.

COT:
Prayers for work, safe travels, visas. Much praise of the playlist was overheard among the PAX. Words like “brilliant,” “fantabulous,” and “masterpiece” were bandied about. Ultimately all agreed: A ++++ with one more + to grow on.

Independence Day Convergence + 1st F Q Handoff

AO: handsomizer
Q: Hair Band , SalPal
PAX: Young and Restless, Black Lung, Spinal Tap, Natural Ice, Puzzlah, Focker, Strutter, DintyMoore, Cowboy, Esposa, Vector, CubCadet, hambone, Betty Ford, Firefox, Chunks, Cuban Missile, Pepsi, Papa Bear
FNGs: None
COUNT: 21
CONDITIONS: Smelled like freedom.

WARMUP: Mosey around stadium, 50 SSH, 25 8-count body builders, 1 vanilla stair run, 1 stair run w/ bunny hops up stairs.

THE THANG:
In late 1776, morale in the Continental Army was at a low after losses at the Battle of White Plains in October and at Forts Washington and Lee in November. Chased by the British, General George Washington retreated across New Jersey and into Pennsylvania. His force, in threadbare uniforms and many without shoes, was reduced to a few thousand and enlistments were set to expire. After asking his enlisted men to stay for one last effort, Washington devised a daring plan to stun the British, capture supplies, and reinvigorate American morale. The objective is to ferry his army across the Delaware River on Christmas and strike the Hessian garrison at Trenton.

MOT to battle: mosey to bridge

At river crossing: in two lines on the 6, everyone does american hammers. Last person in line bear crawls across bridge and starts american hammers on other side. 2nd to last person goes, then third, etc until all across.

Battle (SalPal takes over), 2 sets:
~15-20ish yards down and back of burpee broad jumps, complete 5 atomic merkins when back. Repeat 5x

Bearcrawl down, crawlbear back. 10 sit throughs with hip taps, 5 e side. Repeat 3x.

Return home: partner up, fireman’s carry/piggyback casualties (partner) back to top of stairs ex (switching along the way for even load distribution).

Sprint from top of stairs to startex, burpees to buy out.

In total there were 905 British casualties and 5 american casualties. The Americans dominated the fight and prevailed again in Princeton a week later. In these battles, General Washington demonstrated his ingenuity and resilience as a leader, won the loyalty of his soldiers, and revived the Continental Army. We celebrate these victories as a reminder of the sacrifices and wins that ensured our freedoms today.

MOLESKINE: Mumble chatter trailed off quickly in the heat of battle. T-claps to Black Lung and his partner doing carries the whole way through.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: 1st F went from Hairy to Salty. Additional Leadership Changes Announced. Natural Icewill have more forthcoming in the days ahead.

(Sally is writing this): Hair Band brought great energy and impact to our region, and will keep up his Grow Schools in the months ahead. I know I have big shoes to fill. I’m looking forward to partnering with Natural Ice and the SLT to bring the heat and the hate to an AO near you. Keep an eye on 1st F for the work ahead.

COT: Grateful for our freedoms and this country. Closed with Pledge of Allegience and prayer.

Bomber Nostalgia – A Legend Returns

AO: bomber
Q: Vector , t-cell
PAX: Papa Bear, Hedwig, Sherlock, Puzzlah, Grape, Tim the Toolman, Michelin Man, Firefox, CubCadet, DintyMoore, Topps, Steampunk
FNGs: None
COUNT: 14
Firefox arranged another hybrid Q bringing back a Bomber legend, t-cell, to Q . . . along with some other dude. In order to “set the mood,” the playlist focused on the Qs’ guilty pleasure: pop music princesses. That’s right – not a single song prior to 2014. That means no 80s songs or Beatles tunes, Pep. One disclaimer: YHC was struck when reviewing the playlist how many F bombs were dropped by these talented women. C’mon, you don’t need to curse to attain pop superstardom – ask Salt N’ Pepa . . .

CONDITIONS: Nostalgic

WARMUP: t-cell leads in a mosey around the AOQ. There may have been some signs of tears as he recalled the days of princessaurora and Hi-Viz (who??).

THE THANG:
#1: t-cell favorite – parking lot shuffle with escalating exercises of burpees, 2 jump squats, and some merkins. A little bit of mumblechatter about speaker volume and the tawdry subtext of these fine pop tunes.

#2: After being gassed from the shuffle, YHC took over to do DIDs at the startex (another t-cell classic) followed by a partner run around the Rec Center Circle highlighted by more burpees, squats, Iron Mikes, and merkins.

Mary to round it off with my 2.0, Steampunk, brazenly throwing out fingertip merkins as the next exercise. Needless to say, I a) was a proud papa and b) totally modified those buggers.

COT: Words or praise, prayers, and gratitude shared. This was also a celebration of my 2.1’s graduation from St. Cecilia Academy later Friday – she’s her own diva/princess of whom this dad is extremely proud.

Ended with a demand that coffeeteria heads to Dose to keep with the nostalgic spirit as well as the demands of our guest – the way many PAX became salty after that announcement made YHC think t-cell had asked for another round of fingertip merkins. Sheesh . . .

Always great to see F3 Nashville royalty at the Most Respected AO in Nashville. Come back again!
