QIC: Fingers

Date: 06/05/18

PAX: Sgt Schultz, Offsides, Harden, The Singing Cowboy, Sour Mash, Vegamite, Drama Queen (WD), 6 Mil (WB), Boomerang, Touch Me Not, Fingers

11 PAX gathered in the gloom of SW Elementary in Clemmons ready for another classic #Parliament beatdown. What they didn’t realize is they were stepping into the bizarro world where workouts start with Mary and end with Warm-o-rama, cadence is counted in reverse, and the exercises all have strange, backward-sounding names. They were about to enter…

Announcements and COT

  • @6Mil’s wife Tiffany is getting to have a baby girl in about 3 weeks. They are super excited! Congratulations to them! Give him a high five when you see him…
  • @SgtSchultz has Q at #BnW tomorrow. Since it is June 6th, he will be doing a D-Day-themed beatdown. Be there or kindly be square.
  • A good friend of @SgtSchultz, Patrick Pate (34 yrs old) was killed over the weekend in head-on car collision (the other driver was killed, as well). He was a very promising young man who had not yet started a family. His loss will be keenly felt by those who knew him. @SgtSchultz is particularly heavy-hearted. Prayers for @SgtSchultz and all family & friends of Patrick as well as the other driver.
  • @TheSingingCowboy’s dad Donald is home from the convalescent center. He’s much happier enjoying his wife’s excellent cooking. Great news!
  • An interesting time adapting to the backward cadence, etc. but the PAX adapted well.
  • Instead of translating the exercise names, I’ll leave it up to interested PAX to find the correlations.
  • Strong work by every one today. Thanks for the keys, @SgtSchultz!

Aye!
