Moleskins:
1.  As usual, time flies when you are Qing – wanted to work in some curls, Rocky Balboa, and Mary, but 45 minutes seems to come sooner when Qing.  However, by the looks of it, there didn’t seem to be any disappointment.  Billy Bob noted an intended double-down, but a change of mind.
2.  I was impressed by the effort on an early Saturday morning – especially during graduation season. 
3.  Ty Webb sure made an impression last week – still receiving some BS calls on the frog jumping. 
4.  Gnarly Goat showed some animalistic nature on the pull-up series – solid.
5.  Crimson, no tire used here – I repeat, no tire.  Must have been Metallica’s crew.
6.  As always, it was an honor to lead the PAX.  Word on the street is that Crimson is cooking up something special for the next True Grit.
