Posted on behalf of Troylette. Before you read his words, read these:
There is no off position on Troylette’s HIM switch. First off, no one EH’ed him; he just shows up one morning like a badass. Then he just keeps getting better. I know that’s the point, but not everyone’s trajectory is so straight. When he Q’s, you can count on 30 – 187% will be stuff we haven’t done before (as you will see below). He’s fairly quiet on site (or more likely, he’s so far ahead of me I can’t hear him), but seems to have encyclopedic access to phenomenal memes for off site smack talk. I lack that skill, so all I can do is be his hype man.
He’s a regular for the 3rd F (Sanctuary), and has taken on a huge piece of this project mentioned in the Moleskin below. He’s just put the sandbag on his shoulders and ran with it. And brought stunning results, just coming out of the gate!
Oh, he also crafted a weight loss challenge whose structure is part fantasy football, part Roberts Rules of Order. It’s heady, but 3 themes abide – show up, lead us, weigh less.
I’m so glad Troylette is part of F3. He is sharpening all of us.
OK, back to Troylette’s BB:

Posse here again – Troylette had put 5 pieces of tape in a checkerboard pattern on each sidewalk square. It felt like we were practicing for the Hop Scotch / Double Dutch Winter Nationals. I kid because I sucked at it.

Moleskin:
Great work by the Pax and embracing something a little different this morning. Had chance to bring out some of the old Football O-Line drills and modify with a F3 twist.
Had the opportunity to learn what old man strength was when going against Shop Dog at end when he was not giving any ground.
Got to hear a little chatter about upcoming game this weekend with BottleCap and Damascus leading way on Pats end, and Dirty Bird holding down for the Falcons with a whole bunch of bandwagon fans coming on to support the Falcons. Rumor still has it that if Falcons win that in the following weeks days, Dirty Bird will be on Q.
