I had a plan but after that lap my cadence meter was drained, so I called the first and relied on the PAX to help me finish this wonderful morning

  • (Sweet Caroline) Box Cutter – no idea
  • (Schneider) Mason Twist – more than necessary

  • Thank you to all for attending my VQ. I inserted a few cadence gaffs, "Ups" instead of "Recovers", and looks of bewilderment just to make it seem like I'm not a natural at this
  • Schneider my friend, thank you for introducing me to F3 and inviting me out for my first post where I put the disclaimer to actual test (I passed out during the COT). I am sorry for the loss of your mother. Her service was beautiful and she sounded like an incredible woman.
  • SwingState for your support, for lending me Freed to Lead, and for the opportunity to Q. I'm sorry you missed it but you've got my HC to Q again. and again.
  • Jack Sabine. You're an amazing son, an incredible student, and a genuinely good person. Your mother and I couldn't have been any luckier. Also you might want to check out Gaga on Tuesdays. They like running over there.
  • F3; I needed this. The 1st became a requirement for me this year. Without the 2nd F I would be struggling.
