12 Pax gathered this morning to see if YHC would deliver on the implied requirement to come up with a clever theme and plan that would allow the pax to become stronger without drudgery and boredom. They were probably disappointed because we…

Hazer is organizing round 3 or 4 of allowing guys who are not in a F3 small group to sign up to get in one.
Prayer requests:
Burns’ wife is traveling to Arizona to visit her grandparents. Pray for safe travel and for a good visit.
NMM:
Swiss Miss was doing something weird with his mouth/vocal chords during warmorama. I don’t know if it was intentional, but it sounded a lot like that bleeping sound I heard when someone was playing Space Invaders at the skate rink back in the ’80s [1980s].
TR plugged GAS groups as follows: GAS groups are great…when I started attending my GAS group, I was just an insignificant millennial; since then, I have been promoted to Assistant (To The) Regional Manager at Fiat Chrysler and I credit the guys in my GAS group.
For those who haven’t heard the story, I recommended someone (F3 name rhymes with “Resistor”) to Swiss Miss (note: Swiss Miss is not a criminal defense lawyer), Swiss Miss sent me a thank you card, I marked through the person’s name and posted a tweet that included a picture of the thank you card complete with “SYITG.” The F3 pax whose name rhymes with “Resistor” informed me, the pax and the NC State Bar that the “permanent” marker I used to mark out his name on Swiss Miss’ thank you card was not “technically” permanent. An anonymous pax (singular or plural) started a gofundme page to raise the money necessary to buy me a real redaction marker. It came in the mail Friday…all of that was a set up for my message during the COT: we can attempt to erase things in our lives that we don’t like, but only the Nantan in the sky has a real redaction pen…all of this moved BAM to tears, and he quickly forgot about the bitterness of Bill Nye not being named bowtie or Windsor.
Speaking of Bill Nye- welcome former FNG Jake Dappler. He’s a science teacher at Reagan, and friend of Burns (in that order).
COT
YHC took us out.
