NOTES
- The Q is proud to announce that none of the pax Summitted this mountain today. Ribshack called it a badge of honor.
- NO music this morning meant more mumble chatter and grumble chatter. Great to hear the pax voicing their dissent with the tasks before them. Misery loves company and today was no exception.
- Like Christ, this mountain will come back. No man knows the day or the hour though the pax are welcome to try and read the signs of the times. Good Luck with that. Instead, live each day with purpose till then.
- The name was a little bit of a mouthful (thanks to Deuce), but welcome to FBG (Fat Bottom Girl). Glad to have you posting in Mint Hill today.
- Ribshack, you left your clothes on your truck which promptly disposed them into the parking lot as you hastily drove back to your mansion.
- 2 Rabbits (Head & Shoulders, Othello) were sighted along the mountainside. They ran away almost as quickly as they came.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
- The Vet is tomorrow at 0700. Christmas will be applying his version of things for his VQ.
- Remember to keep High Chair in your prayers while he attends his first GoRuck event this weekend.
TCLAPS to the great Sky Q for the opportunity to lead and be included in this great pax. #morethanaworkout
