  1. Great turnout this morning – hopefully you got your money’s worth.
  2. For the record, I went back and counted 34 times “thunder” is said 34, including a few obscure times I swear weren’t there before. The worst part is they come in bunches.
  3. On a completely unrelated note, try convincing your family you are working from home when they can hear AC/DC playing…
  4. Strong work by all. I’m a little biased of course, but that was a tough one. No breaks between sets kicks things up a notch.
  5. You guys were right – 1000 musicians playing Foo Fighters in sync is pretty badass. Also, see unrelated note in #3 above…
  6. 10 at coffeeteria, including some wayward Dawgs just trying to find a bone.
  7. Bull Run (oyo), Rail Yard (Solo Cup) and QSource Grinder (Exit54) are all on tap for tomorrow.
  8. If you’re around next week, Exit54 is taking on the Iron Q Challenge. You will definitely get your money’s worth!

Cheers!

  1. Thanks for coming out and for the privilege of leading the workout.

  2. Good lead, @Gamma. Another discussion item from this morning (albeit this one came up during coffee) that you can watch while working:

    1. That’s even better than the Foo Fighter thing! Now if we can only get one of @Buck’s robots to serve it to us….

  3. Love me some HBurg Iron! Great lead @Gamma! Always enjoy the randomness of #Iron and #Coffeeteria…

    Btw – “working” involves research… most don’t understand
