The Die won’t Die

QIC: Fender

Date: 11/12/2020

PAX: Harden, Bevo (not to be confused with Drano), Sourmash, Schneider, 60 Minutes, Fender

YHC had other plans that incorporated lots of block pushing and pain.  Unfortunately, YHC failed to check the weather the night before and didn’t realize we’d need a boat to get to the shelter.  Also, the blocks were suspiciously moved to the side of the building and totally drenched in the growing pool around us.  So, to prevent any drowning, we stayed under the shelter and I rehashed an my old “death by die” routine.  Here’s how it went down:

Mary:

  • SSH x 50 ic
  • Some Broga (sun salutations with varieties of planking, warrior, and a little crow)

The Beatdown:

  • Each pax wrote down their favorite exercise on a slab of cardboard.  This is the list:
    • Harden – LBC’s
    • Schneider – Alabama Prom Date
    • Sourmash – Body Destroyers
    • Bevo – Freddy Merc’s
    • 60 Minutes – Merkins
  • The rules were simple:
    • try to call the number the die will land on.  1 in 6 chance of winning.
    • if you get your number, we do 20 reps of the exercise you wrote down.
    • if you miss, we do a negotiated 10 Burpees (originally YHC said 20, 60 minutes begged for 5, so YHC met him at 10)
  • Round 1 – 20 LBC’s and 40 Burpees
  • Round 2 – 20 seconds of Body Destroyers, 20 Alabama Prom Dates, and 30 Burpees
  • Round 3 – 50 Burpees!

Mary:

  • Low Flutter x 50 ic
  • 30 Burpees (at Bevo’s request)
  • Freddie Murc’s x 50 ic

CoT:

  • Announcements:
    • 60 Minutes has Q for BBBC tomorrow
    • Bevo has his first Parliament Q on Tuesday
    • YHC has Impossible Situation on Saturday
  • Prayers:
    • Perry brother’s mom with her chemo.
    • YHC took us out.

NMM:

  • Sourmash decided to prove his buoyancy by running through the deepest puddle to get to the shelter.  Then, to show off his inner Mr. Miyagi and zen, he grabbed a broom and elegantly swept the space he would use to perform his exercises.
  • Schneider had the good fortune of doing this same routine a while back.  He had a twinkle in his eye (and a little swallowed vomit) at the prospects of what was about to unfold.
  • Harden made claims that the game rules weren’t clearly defined and that YHC changed them in the middle to benefit his Burpee quota.  YHC chooses not to comment on the matter until he has proper legal representation.
  • At one point Bevo regarded his regret for being downwind of Sourmash’s high level of flatulence skills.
  • 60 Minutes talked extensively about the strange relationship he and his dog have with each other’s backsides.  I guess the important thing is that they love each other.  (I will be promptly washing my mouth out with soap and say a prayer now that I had to mention this much.)

Very much a pleasure to lead these HIM’s!  Solid work men!

60 Minutes, you’ll probably need a fishing pole to find the keys.  Sorry
