My best friend’s sister’s boyfriend’s brother’s girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who’s going with the girl who saw Bounce pass out at the Dunkin’/31 Flavors after being exposed 2+ weeks ago to the COVID. So……..I guess it’s pretty serious.

- QIC: Clover
- Pax: Amber, Bounce aka Beef Curtain aka Pluff Muffin, Deep Dish, Erin Brokovich, Geraldo, Huddle House, IHOP, Lockdown, Mayday, Motor Boat, Pack N Play, Puddin' Pop, Salt-N-Pepa, Semi-Gloss, Sling Shot, Spackler, Sprockets, Sweater Set
Who Doesn’t Want to Wear the Ribbon?!
I thought I would start with a pictorial representation of today’s Falcon Crest:
However, the*most important* images to take from today’s Falcon Crest are thoughts and prayers for our fallen: Bounce.
As a result, YHC was asked to take the ‘Q’ from Bounce’s Quarantine, with barely any notice and after having Q’ed yesterday. Wanting to show support for Bounce, I donned a red ribbon (available soon at the online F3 store!). Not surprised that the first person to notice was Puddin’, who immediately shouted “Who doesn’t want to wear the ribbon!”, which started a discussion on Seinfeld that ended, 60 minutes later, on Diff’rent Strokes.
We waited for the inevitable bike “ring ring” from a shirtless (WTF) Sprockets, followed by his posse of runners in formation, and got going.
Inspired by my classmate, Amy Coney Barrett, an extremely detailed and legally accurate disclosure was given. I think its important here to note the juxtaposition of our days. ACB woke up and got ready for a confirmation hearing in the U.S. Senate. YHC was being hissed at and harassed in all directions by a bunch of white men (more on that later). On second thought, maybe our days were not so different after all.
What Had Happened Was:
Head out down Rea and into the new housing development to access the Harris Teeter employees’ smoke-break-path to the medical building lot. To honor the English Patient, we did COVID-19s, i.e., 19 each of the following:
C-opperhead squats (several months ago a small group at El Patron did copperhead squats and for some reason Bounce hissed, and added an arm movement like the Purple Cobras from Dodge Ball, and since then, it’s stuck). It seemed most everyone hissed today, and refused to count, which they thought would throw YHC off but – doy – I was keeping count in my head the whole time. Y’all need to do much more to throw me off my (substituted) game.
O- verhead Presses
V-ups
I- mperial Walkers
D-ancing Bears (I think the exicon has these mis-labeled; they seem to be bird dogs)
Run back out to Rea, into the new houses, down the path, and to the medical building lot. YHC felt that Bounce needed a second COP in his honor. So the pax circled up and we did WUSSY:
W-indmills (10)
U- p Straddle Hops (1-legged SSHs, 10 on each leg)
S – corpion Dry Docks (10 each leg)
S – prinklers (10)
Y- crunches (Rosalita + flutter)
Truth be told YHC had *another* round planned but the Pax’s concern for Bounce has left them drained – emotionally, physically, spiritually – that we moseyed to Chadwyck Boseman Wakanda Forever RIP Farms Rd. Thankful for Geraldo for being out front with me with small talk; hopeful that when he reports back to Mermaid, he has nice things to say.
Here is where Bounce’s alleged-Wienke came into play. We ran down Chadwyck to Windyrush and stopped at the big intersections for 10 air dramas and 10 merkins. Partner up at the hill leading up to Summerlin, where partner 1 ran up to Summerlin intersection for 5 jump squats while partner 2 did foxholes (1 WWII sit up, roll over 1 merkin, roll back WWII sit up…). 2 rounds each. Mosey back same route, Carolina dry docks at the intersections.
Just when you thought we were done with the Harris Teeter secret path – nope, one more time through it to the parking lot, where pax lined up abreast for Welsh Dragons, with a duck walk back to start, and then LL Cool J’s, and finally a return to launch for LBCs and Freddy Mercury’s as time expired.
Moleskin/Announcements/Observations:
Prayers for Bounce and that God puts His healing hands over Bounce’s non-illness. Real prayers for Motor Boat who tweaked his (already injured) hamstring. There were a lot of boot camp elements today (along with ~ 3 miles) which can sneak up and gas you – everyone put in outstanding effort today!
Blood drive on the 23rd (info literally all over Slack if you can donate).
F3 Give to Gift campaign going on – hoping to raise $200,000. Leadership positions within the foundation also open to any and all interested in being a part of a charitable organization. Per Gloss its a 501(c)(3) so obvi its legit.
Sounds like the glamping trip by MotorBoat and Gloss, sorry, Screaming Eagle and Big Oak, was a success (in that they successfully got their kids to accompany them to the bars and breweries).
Congrats to Spackler for winning hos own club’s golf tourney, and then winning 2nd at a tourney in Greenville, SC this past weekend (complete with cash prize, though sadly not enough to get those car speakers installed).
And a HUGE congrats to JetFuel for his engagement to Ms. Huntersville this past weekend up in the mountains!
Post-workout discussions got serious as Geraldo, Erin Brockovich, Deep Dish and Puddin’ discussed all things Diff’rent Strokes.
Huddle House crushing his Q game, he is on tap next Falcon Crest.
