Announcements:

  • YHC needs Qs for the Outhouse for all Mondays after 7/15.

Prayer Requests:

  • Wobegon’s M who had surgery this morning.
  • Peacemaker’s M as she goes through treatment for cancer.
  • Boomerang’s sister started a new drug for cancer treatment.
  • Families with kids with special needs.

NMM:

YHC:  “At least we didn’t run.”  Boomerang:  “That’s looking on the bright side of things.”

YHC’s personal Q philosophy is to run folks until the bell rings, mixing in a few exercises along the way.  YHC took it as a personal challenge to Q a rigorous workout without incorporating any running.

Great meeting and partnering with Zombie.  He pushed hard throughout and was still doing burpees at the end of “Can’t Touch This” while the rest of us were saying, “Don’t touch me.”  We also discovered that Boomerang works with one of his family members at Wells Fargo.

TPS is Mr. Consistent.  YHC had the “pleasure” of partnering with him during excessive suicide drills at the Outhouse on Monday courtesy of The H.O.G. (if you haven’t been to the Outhouse, you should), followed by observations of him and Boomerang easily pounding out the 60 pullups.  The two could  have gone to 100 without question.

Boomerang might be a cyborg.  The War Daddy conquered the extended BTTW with no evident effort.  Just a boring morning for our world traveling servant.  YHC also experienced some exceptional 2nd and 3rd Fs with Boom following COT while discussing how we might better serve families with special needs.

YHC enjoyed the camaraderie of the small group today.  Again, as Thistle and others preach continually, we do things together that we would never do alone.  These men pushed YHC to the limits of my own workout today.  YHC is thankful for them and for the blessing of F3.

    Another brutal Greenspan beatdown. Glad to say YHC missed this one.
