Get Busy Livin’

Get Busy Livin’

QIC: Starfish

Date: 4/17/2021

PAX: Zima, TweetyBird, Sea-Man, Subfloor, Crash, CodeRed, RustBucket (WD), VanGogh, H.O.G (WB), Starfish (QIC)

After five of us defeated Dr. Kevorkian on the #SuperMax undercard on Saturday, 5 more us showed up to the main event to help all ten of us get busy livin’ by celebrating life in prison aka #Alcatraz.  Somehow @VanGogh counted 13 total unique pax at River Oaks this morning, but every time YHC counts he can only come up with 11.  Maybe @VanGogh had some of his invisible friends there, too.  All 11 (or 13) pax were appropriately disclaimed and informed that if they were there to run, they were going to be sorely disappointed and/or they should have showed up to #SuperMax.  It went something like this (apologies for any inaccuracies as YHC was definitely making this one as he went along with only a rough sketch of what we were going to do):

Now, everyone that posted to #Alcatraz can honestly that they have been in a #TurkishPrison.  #Cobains for the rough terrain; it looked fluffy from a distance but was decidedly not fluffy.

Great to meet @Sea-Man, @Subfloor, @CodeRed…strong work and great to have new blood amidst our group.

@RustBucket might need a renaming given the whip he pulled up in on Saturday.  And he also exhibited an aerodynamic new hairdo and a willingness/silliness to never put his rock or cinderblock down during that rock and block work.
