FNG1 is Nate-Totebag's 2.0 , FNG2 is Mohawk-Loveshack's 2.0, FNG3 is Rusty Hooker-Shambala's 2.0. These 22 men threw caution to the wind (figuratively and literally) when they burst out of the confines of the fartsack today, as hurricane Florence bore down upon us, with the first of the rains coming last night, and sporatic rains peppering us all night. But, as is our tradition, the rains mostly stopped for 60 minutes at God's gift the F3RCUSA, The Glen. As such, a Q was squeezed into this Saturday, the one that was meant to celebrate family and friends here in RC, one that would pay hommage to not only the fine men attending the Q, but also to the storm named after…..well, you'll find out.

Moleskine:
-Special note: GREAT to see Ticktock out with us again, and prayers were offered up for his daughter Katelyn during COT. He was a rock, as always!
-HUGE thanks to to Deer Hunter, Nate, Straight Cash, Soul Glo, Totebag, Stroker, Loveshack, Rentacop, and the others that YHC obviously missed.
-SOOOooooooo, as Hurricane Florence tightens her grip on our locale, one 'may' think of Flo….the Flo of Progressive INsurance fame, then one, if left with enough time to ponder, would clearly derive the name for today's Q-Progression. Hence, both activities involved the simple progression of pain, increasing excercise reps, mounting amounts of …..well, you get the idea.
-Lear had a surprsing handshake today, 'nuff said.
-For some VERY strange reason, rain holds off during F3RCUSA's posts….not sure why. Literally, it rained off/on all night, was nearly DRY at kickoff and some mild rain greeting us at the finish. Such a blessing….we are blessed.
-ONE WEEK from today is the preeminent F3RCUSA Lake Day!! 10-2-skiing, 2-8-party, cookout, swimming, festivities.
-Gents, stay dry, be safe, and see y'all in the gloom!!
-Contra has next week, pre(burpeefest)pare yourself!!!
-Ultimate Football was audibled out of the Q today due to time constraints-which….at times….seem unreasonable. As such, a request for a 90 minute Q is being sent, via carrier pigeon, to the F3 BOD tomorrow. YHC is hoping Florence doesn't have too much effect this precious bird.
-The COT mentioned Straight Cash Homie and his children, as their Mother's (who passed this past summer) birthday is today. Strutter's Dad, Chicken Little's friend, and Ticktock's daughter Katelyn were also kept in our thoughts and prayers.
