COT

Moleskin

Was DR for the holidays and caught an Ohio cold. Couple that with a bunch of food and holiday cheer and YHC was prepared for a difficult morning. That certainly was the case.

Catalina Wine Mixers suck. No better way to describe them, really. A bit of mumblechatter around this call by the Q. Hit the Exicon for that beauty. Moderation is key with that one.

Spackler was pushing the pace at time this morning. Well done. The mumblechatter about the shirts of Gamecock past was entertaining.

Not a lot to report this morning, probably because the Q was sucking wind and trying to get through it. Rock Thrill joined us this morning. Always great to have him post in A51.

Best wishes for 2019, men. Saw a tweet from Busch (@chrisbehrmann) that seems very relevant to starting a new year, or, anytime really: “People are vowing to do something to make themselves better…but if you only focus on yourself, you will never be the best you or live a truly full life. You must shift you mindset to focus on making others better as well.” This is closely aligned with the F3 Credo: Leave no man behind, but also don’t leave them where you found them.” Push and support those men around you, at workouts, work, church, in your families, etc. Help make people around you better.

T-claps to Scratch and Win for the takeout prayer.
