MOLESKIN:
Doubtfire dodged a bullet this morning. His back was hurting him and he put out a last-minute post at 4:33 AM asking for coverage. None of us saw the message until after we got started. We were all discussing what we would do to him at the equalizer for missing a Q. We landed on jumping in the water. Fortunately for him he got in the text before. Get better soon Doubtfire!

On another note there was a gentleman there at the flagpole with all kinds of stuff laid out, lights incense rugs etc. He was very friendly, and we invited him to join us next Wednesday.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Cross bar is in need of a job. He’s an industrial engineer but it impressive background. Maybe looking for something in construction as well. Prayers for him to find something quickly.

“A key to success is playing the hand you were dealt like it was the hand you wanted.” -Inky Johnson.

MOLESKIN:
Mumble chatter was high today even throughout the burpees. PAX pushed hard and kept YHC motivated to push to the end.  Success was had throughout the workout with the only audible being the 300 V-Ups.  I believe we hit about 1/3 of those.
