Abs, Laps & 4 Corners

QIC: Cherry Pie

Date: 09/11/18

PAX: Zima, Root Canal, Thistle, Turnover, Roosevelt, Cheese Steak

Is there such thing as beating down a beatdown?  If so, that is what Cherry Pie witnessed this morning.   No other way to describe it.  6 bold pax manhandled what the Q thought was a man-sized,  respectable, Flatline worthy, 45 minutes of pain.   Back to the drawing board!

Clearly the Q needs to up his game…only completed 1/2 of round two!  Round 3 was on paper, where unfortunately it had to remain (at least for today!).  It was noted at the conclusion of the morning that Thistle’s mouth runs on a “different battery” from the rest of his body.  The Energizer Bunny would be jealous.  It was a joy to be with this pax, all of whom knew what they were getting into and showed up anyway!  Thank you my friends.  It was an honor to be with each of you.
