Moleskin:
-T-claps to Ray Charles for stepping up on the stage. “I’ve got a few new moves for us”….good ones too.
-Aussie Peal back and “Skunk Humpers” (note name change) were borrowed from our Northern brothers- read it in a backblast last week. Thx!
-I’ll leave the comments on the humpers to the pax….submit and let’s have fun with it.
-YHC had to modify quickly with most of the pax not remembering to bring their dumb bells…No problem..Skunk Works is all about variety.
-HARLEY was there w/ Skunk Bell!
-Strong post by Boomer (War Daddy)…he was at Matrix yesterday and back for SW today. RESPECT!
-Welcome FNG Lemon…go see him for your next BMW, Christmas Specials running now? Wanker EHing the brother-in-law, nice work!

-Tiger Q’s tomorrow at DV…ruck “unfriendly” warning.

Chatter from pax that the Q should take us out on a date prior to the new Skunk Humper exercise next time! All kidding aside it was a great creative workout today Stone Cold and Ray Charles! There are no more excuses for Ray Charles now, I expect to see him as Q on a regular basis.
Thanks to Dora for going back out with me to run for an extra mile after the COT as it’s a new weekday workout tradition for our Leatherneck team. The South CLT team #Clydesdale on a mission to get nimble and quick before the Mud Run.
