If you happen to be one of those who follow John Rothstein (@JonRothstein) on twitter you probably have noticed that he has been providing a daily countdown until college basketball season “officially” begins. Yes, I am a big football fan and love college football and my Redskins…..but that doesn’t change the fact that college basketball is right around the corner.
So thanks @jonrothstein for YHC deciding to recycle “40 Minutes of Hell – TRQ edition”.

NMM
- Silence was the name of the game today – 4 pax showed up, got out of their cars, and just stared at each other until YHC broke the silence.
- Ziggy inquired about the difference between a “windmill” and “abe vogoda’s” – YHC has no idea, as my M, YHC just likes to screw around with the name of things.
- During The Thang, no real conversation occurred again – just lots of hard work, sweat and groaning.
- It was nice to join some guys that YHC doesn’t get to see often due to @run4thebourbon training.
COT
- Bourbon Chase is approaching – Team is getting after it. 35 days to go!
YHC took us out thing HIM for the day, the strength to get out, those who may be suffering, and asking that we be given the opportunity to share his grace with someone in our path today.
Wobegon – Thanks for the invite across country this morning. Where was everyone though? Are all the dash pax that scared of us from #WeFoCo?
Harden!

BAM
good stuff! To answer the age-old question, what’s the difference between windmills and Abe Vigoda’s – speed. Prior to getting AV’s, Juicebox would call for windmills “old man style” to slow down the pace (and not pull a hammy) Then in a burst of creativity, and showing our age, pax remembered the character Fish from the classic tv show Barney Miller, played by Abe Vigoda. Old Abe was one of those folks who looked 60 when he was 30 and never did anything fast!
In response to the “where was everybody?” – yep, wefoco scares us.

35 days?!!!!?? Unbelievable! So excited for this year’s edition.
