Parliament

  • Reformation Day

    As I was setting up the premiere Tuesday AO, it started to slightly rain. Just enough to give the 2 runners a nice shower before the hammer came down. Adobe came and planted the flag, as well helped move one of the movable benches for a great new exercise. October 31 is a glorious day…

  • Shoulder Pain

    Burns needed a last minute Sub due to a stomach bug, so we swapped Q dates, bringing YHC in a week early. No announcement was made declaring YHC as Q so as to not scare off any timid PAX. Though our Site Q did tease that it wouldn’t be fun, which could have impacted numbers?…

  • That’s hockey, baby!

    Ah, early October. As the temps drop, the baseball playoffs settle in, and the Panthers eliminate themselves from relevancy again….we get hockey. Sweet, sweet hockey.  The puck drops tonight, with the Hurricanes starting their (it has to be this year, right?) championship season tomorrow.

  • Parliamentary MC / Bose

    Best temperatures yet of the post-summer season, with a beautiful, star-filled sky, awaited the 11 pax who entered the chambers this morning. Warmarama: SSHs,  Abe Vigodas, Down/Upward Dog stretches, Dive Bombers, Cherry Pies The Thang First up was the “Hammer Time” routine set to MC Hammer’s “You Can’t Touch This”. Every time Hammer says, “Can’t…

  • Mama Tried

    YHC was supposed to Q Parliament last week on 8/22/23, which would have also been my mom’s 82nd birthday.  But alas, YHC caught the mystery fever (not gonorrhea or syphilis) and had to swap with @Rudolph.  So YHC swapped out playlists but kept the original rough outline/plan for the workout which was to celebrate my…

  • In Search of Perfect Form

    This was going to take place next week, but unfortunately Starfish had an activation of gonorrhea, syphilis and chlamydia all at the same time.  #prayersup.  Actually he quite smartly asked for the swap given his post-fever status, and since I’m not travelling until tomorrow, why not (feel better Starfish….I read you had a 104 fever? …
