Some ideas you shouldn’t steal

OK, stole a workout from Mongoose, who stole it from Cobra.  Bad idea – should have realized that from the lineage alone.  However, #Flatline happened with a great group and hard effort.  It was a relatively cool with somewhat lower humidity, so I employed Q wisdom and went into a parking deck to minimize the cooling breezes and amp up the humidity.  After a short warm-up mosey, we started the Grim Reaper — see the fun we had in two groups covering almost all of the 4 stations of love:

High Schoolers on Beach Week – safety and making good decisions

Breaker – his brother-in-law ( 33 yo) and family dealing with an aortic aneurysm and Breaker has a new job as a lawyer in Richmond (moving in a month).

NMM

Pita – Does it worry anyone else that Pita always has a grin that says I know something that you don’t?

Palin – The man has become a beast – Should we test the pharmacist for  PEDs?

TPS – Strong work brother, as always

Drip – My goal was to make you work hard – glad to help you

Roosevelt – The epitome of quietly getting it done

Root Canal (WD, Jr.) – I looked up and you were leading your group – MVP of Flatline???

Van Gogh – Only thing VG cannot do is read my cardboard instructions

Breaker – I never like the WB – especially when they are talented and so nice

An honor to “lead” this group – go out to show love to this world!

Pita — keys are in the parking deck stairwell, good luck.

  1. I have somehow always avoided the Grim Reaper and, due to a scheduling mixup that had me Qing TheEstate Monday, I avoided it yet again. Lucky me! Looks turrible. Glad some irregulars posted.
