THE PAX

Goofy, Bam, Singing Cowboy, Lace, Landshark, Cobra, Bluto, Tuco, TR (WB), Zuckerberg, Interference, Light Brigade, Boomerang (WD).

YHC had the privilege of his first VQ (yes Interference, overdue) being at Bells N Whistles on a snowy first day of spring, where 13 PAX gathered for the sounds of Motown and a well-lit workout space (thanks Larry). As I arrived I was thrown off by the number of cars in the soccer field parking lot, especially since I recognized none of the vehicles and they were in the wrong lot. First thought, what are the disclaimers when there are FNG’s in the PAX!

After the school closing announcement by Goofy, more on the response later, we began the workout. A very loosely based theme around the automakers of Detroit, loose because the Q failed to make many references during the workout. Needs improvement noted.

COT

Prayers for Rhonda at Panera, cancer has returned.

Prayers TR’s aunt has diabetes and issues arising from that.

Bam referenced and excellent podcast on the need for men to be in community with each other and the effects of not being in a community. It’s not just about doing a workout.

YHC was honored to take out the group of men he has come to admire and respect. Praying for the requests mentioned and for those suffering with addictions. Prayer for to be transparent with other men, our families and those that we work with.

MOLESKIN

All PAX showed up ready to work and did not disappoint YHC at his VQ-THANKS!

The announcement of school closing brought many a %#&@, &*@%, $&$% and #&@% from Cobra-tried to think of one to share, but just couldn’t.

Obviously, the divider on the cardboard box threw Goofy off as he was off across the lot before the first circuit was done, he returned and stayed on track.

Music was given an A+.

Lace and Singing Cowboy were after it this AM, strong performance men.

Tuco hoped for the Jackson 5 to be playing while we were with the Bells and somehow Siri much have known and obliged.

Bam needed a soapbox and many shouts of Preach It were heard during the announcements/COT.

Mongoose was not present.

Thanks gentlemen for the support and to site Q Cobra for the keys, tried to leave them with the principal but with the school closing, you know, oh well!
