Spaulding, get your foot off the boat.

Twenty two men met up in the humid gloom at Olde Providence Elementary.  There were no new faces (although some to me), the men were disclaimed and off we went.

COP started out a little on the rough side.  Q called the first exercise as IW but started with SSH.  There was an objection or two.  Several men were thrown off, including myself, however we all recovered and were fine.  Crisis averted.  During the merkin part of COP, I noticed someone’s flatulence was also in step with the cadence count and it was mighty impressive.  Puddin know anything about this?  Puddin also advised that CMS is building a new high school on the back fields of OP.  It should be done by next summer.  The initial plan was to run the catch me if you can with the rocks.  I called an audible and the rocks were replaced.  Thank goodness – I didn’t want to deal with a mutiny.  After the workout, Cotton Mouth advised a great way to cool off is to put two bags of ice under your armpits.  Makes sense to me.  Puddin further advised that a bag of ice could be placed under another bag to cool off.  I don’t know about that one.  I’ll have to take his word for it.  Spackler what kind of vote response did we get for today’s workout.  Was it a 6 or a 7?  Maybe an 8?  As we were departing the parking lot, several men noticed Semi Gloss and Motor Boat were somewhat disrobed in Semi’s car.  Both were sharing genuine smiles of anticipation.  I’m sure it had a lovely smell going into work.  I believe it was referred to as a ‘burner car’.
