Rockin good time at #Bells & Whistles

QIC: Tuco

Date: 9/13/17

PAX: Winkelvoss, Zuckerberg, Sassy, Boomerang, Sgt Schultz, Bluto, Singing Cowboy, Cobra, Resistor, ToeTag, Gepetto, Poncho, Hoptoberfest, Peg Leg (FNG)

Well, well, well, YHC learned the musical selection is a key driver of enjoyment (or lack) at Bells & Whistles.  Full 45 minutes of MC about music quality.  #philcollinsisawesome #prommusic #let’sslowitdown #haveyouheardofSpotify #canwemoseytogetawayfrommusic and so on, and on, and on…

May consider something other than Pandora for next Q, maybe not.  Q doesn’t really have to listen to anybody – quoting/paraphrasing many of our great Qs of the past.

Oh, we did a little work also.  For those who missed the best Wednesday KB workout at the Reagan High School AO in Winston-Salem, this happened,

Warm-O-Rama

  • SSH x 15 IC
  • IW x 15 IC
  • Abe Vigodas x 10 IC
  • Whirly with a clap x 15 IC
  • Mosey around upper parking lot

Thang – 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off, each exercise x 5 sets, mosey around upper parking lot after each set of two exercises

  • Overhead Press and Chest Press
  • Butterfly and Squat
  • Curls (for the girls) and Skull Crusher
  • Iversons and Split/Side Squat
  • Shoulder Press (each arm) and Curls (for more girls)
  • Skull Crusher and Squats

Mary – 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off, each exercise x 2 sets

And Scene.

Announcements:

  • Hedwig taking medical board exam today
  • May have missed others

COT

ToeTag took us out asking for strength to be best men we can be.

NMM:

  • Some spirited chatter about the music – Pax can elaborate
  • Sassy, only 2nd time to B&W, right in the middle of MC about music.  Et tu Sassy?
  • Bluto, Cobra, Resistor, ToeTag, Poncho from YHC right and Winklevoss, Zuckerberg Sassy, Boomerang, Sgt Schultz from left – surround sound MC.  #dolby
  • Hoptoberfest had the decency to quietly offer suggestions to the musical challenges YHC faced today.  #respect
  • Singing Cowboy was a true gentlemen, stayed quiet or at least did not hear his MC
  • Sgt Schultz was ready to settle for Rush; his opinion of music was very clear
  • MC decreased as workout progressed, will take that as measure of sufficiency
  • Naming Peg Leg was long, slow, uninspired process until Wink and Zuck dug deep into fact about selling orthopedic joint replacements, knees and other stuff, boom – Peg Leg.  Was Prom Date, no idea why, change was excellent idea.  #genius
  • No Mongoose sighting, apparently he was Q across town.  #nodoubledown

All I got.

Thank you for opportunity and support.

    Stand your ground, Tuco!! Don’t let those music bullies push you around. If you want to play polka music ? then go right ahead.

    Who brought the FNG? Please post on the Twitter and use #FNGChallenge? I hope it was Tow Tag….

    Welcome, FNG @PegLeg – brought by @Wink.

    Great beatdown @Tuco! 20 secs on x 5 was good stuff!

    Music could’ve been worse.

    It was a great work out. The music and constant complaining , griping, amateurish attempts at stand up comedy routines and the fact that we ultimately wore down Tuco all made it worth while. I did feel a bit guilty when I went home ( kind of like when you have too much desert ) Tuco is, unlike most of the Pax, a genuine nice person and really should not be be exposed to such injustice ( music was ok). Thanks Tuco for Quing and wearing my butt out. Good stuff !
