Fact Check This Backblast…

In a ridiculous attempt to parody the voluminous, magnanimous, adventurous, and tremendous legend aka Horsehead, YHC is gruntled to present you with a backblast that is worthy of fact checking.  Don’t believe everything you read on the internets.

The 2 minute warning was given and when it expired Shepherd took off in a sprint worthy of Keefer and Snowman (sans the crazed Xena Warrior Princess attack mode yodeling).  We trucked over to the bus lot via the sidewalk in front of the school and circled up for the following:

COP

– IWs (X20 IC)

– LSSs (X20 IC)

Mosey to the patio area.

– Step-ups (X20 OYO)

– Plank it up

Cheese weave thru the line of buses

– Merkins (X20 IC)

IR to Elementary School bus lot

– SSH (X20 IC)

IR to Elementary School back parking lot

– Karaoke left

– Karaoke right

Partner up.  Partner 1 run to Rogers Rd and return; Partner 2 – 20 BPs and 20 LSSs (Repeato); Flapjack.

– Windmills (X15 IC)

IR to back of Middle School

– LBCs (X20 OYO)

Hand off to The Late Show

In back of the school we stop to pick up a cinder block and head to the front patio for a little bit o’ fun.

Deposit your block on the curb at the bottom of the hill then over to the lunchroom patio.

(5) Supine Rows

(10) Mericans

(15) Squats

Mosey to your block and give it a lift to the top of the hill and back.

Repeato until time is almost up.

Hustle the block back to the pile and back around front for the COT

Done! Prayers and announcements and we took off for coffeeteria and 3F at McD’s.

Moleskine

After fighting off several members of the Drivers Ed Pit Crew we almost decided to scrap the w/out and head to Starbucks for the paper and a skinny soylent green latte with extra foam, but Shepherd got us back together with a reminder:  WWGJD? (What Would Glass Joe Do?)  So we bandaged our wounds, blew our noses, iced up, and got back in the game…

With regards to our fearless first half Q…. his sprint to the bus lot got us wondering and we suspected something was up. As we finished the 6 mile partner run to Rogers Rd and back we were pretty sure that “Shepherd” was actually Glass Joe wearing a Shepherd costume.  But after the run we were too out of breath to care so we just went with it.  By the time we made it back around to the front of the school dragging blocks behind us, we forgot exactly what we were talking about… but we knew it had something to do with costumes.  So we decided to stop for a while and talk over Halloween costumes and used Google Sheets on The Count’s Phablet to plot a spreadsheet to determine the relation between “Facepaint Quantity” and “Candy Quantity.”  That devolved into an argument over the worth of candy in the average Halloween haul.  Woody claimed that 2 mini snickers were worth 4 mini Twix bars in a trade, while Squid was adamant that 4 mini Twix were worth 6 Milkyways OR 7 Three Musketeers.  Bonhoeffer almost popped a blood vessel when The Count tried to convince us that 1 mini pack of Starburst was worth 2 mini bags of Sour Patch Kids.  Meanwhile Shepherd and I were in our own heated debate regarding the effectiveness of the classics: “Trick or Treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat.” versus “Trick or Treat, be so sweet, give me something good to eat.”  Eventually we got it sorted out and finished the workout without any hard feelings.  #ISI

Proudly hitting the Outland deadline of Thursday…

The Late Show out.
