Date: 2026-02-07 AO: Olympus Q: Blanks , PAX: voodoo, The Worm, Blanks, Krzyzewski, Emoji, MARTA, high_tide, hoover FNGs: None COUNT: 8 WARMUP: hoover inspired: the usual, mixed in with 100 single bell swings! Love getting those out of the way up front.
THE THANG: MARTA requested a themed playlist, so I went with an easy one; songs from movies. It didn’t take long for him to call me out for not watching movies in the past 20 years. YHC had a blast today, the PAX showed up and made it worthwhile. Krzyzewski was supportive and never hesitated, no matter how heavy his bells were. high_tide nailed a bunch of my songs, which made YHC feel vindicated. voodoo powered through a virus he picked up either from across the pond or one of his many work/ski trips. Emoji was fired up the whole time, showing up early and putting YHC’s enthusiasm to shame. The Worm set the pace for the farmers carries, and nailed the Nine Inch Nails song from The Crow.
It was an honor gentleman!! Your fellowship is as refreshing as a post-workout Miller Lite at 8am on my day off.
