Moleskin:

No it wasn’t YHC’s 50th birthday, but 50 was a focal point of today’s beatdown. We had lots of great discussion like the scary turned nice people in the home alone movies, including great Home Alone quotes. We noted scary people who walk in the AO parking lot alone in the dark. We also discussed getting tattoos. Ichabod told Popcorn that he would get a legit tattoo of his face if he posted at 52 Dragon Slayer’s in a year (YHC likes the way the DS MQ thinks). However, if he didn’t succeed, that Popcorn would instead get a tattoo of Ichabod’s face instead. BTW, Popcorn didn’t take that bet.

Fast pitch has been crushing it lately. He’s getting stronger and faster with each post. Proud of you man! Ichabod has been like a wild animal seeking prey this year. 2024 was transformative for him and it shows. You look great man! After Shadow’s VQ he has been next level and now has a fever (for which the only cure is more Q’s). Be on the lookout for him at an AO near you soon. Popcorn graced us today with his presence (when he’s not in an ivory tower in the city of Chicago). Let the record reflect that he did not take his shirt off though. Enron can still bootcamp (as evidenced by the fact that he can do 20 pushups). Always good to post with both of them as they were very influential on YHC when he was young Toby. These Pax were beasts today and are better for it. Thanks to Ichabod for lending YHC the keys to your AO!

-Drebin is planning a F3 western NC volunteer trip on 1/10-1/11. Please DM him if you are interested: https://x.com/f3_drebin/status/1869433793666494933?s=46&t=I9zoJ4_Qk_zDunXzHxIGaA

Reminder:

The F3 mission statement is “to plant, grow, and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership”. 

F3 5 Core Principles:

Workouts …

• Are free of charge
• Are open to all men
• Are held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
• Are led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion, with no training or certification necessary
• End with a Circle of Trust

There are plenty of Q slots at all AO’s. Please sign up. For new Pax, volunteer to lead/Q (we’ll help you co-Q). For you seasoned guys, sign up for some Q’s.

Invite a FNG or brother you haven’t seen in a while who’s a Kotter. Invite that #just1 who needs you more than you know (an invitation is a powerful thing brothers). If none of those work for you, just show up. No one will be left behind, but it all starts with the discipline to take one.

Until next time…
