Naked-man Moleskin:

  • Pilot #1 we didn’t make it ½ way through: runs too long and counts too high.Pilot #2 the runs were too short and the counts too low.

  • Thanks to all who came out today, good mumble chatter from multiple clichés

  • Had a good Arnie’s Army showing, but they didn’t mingle nor follow directions well

  • One of the best showing by Dallas, he did more exercises than Crude, which is a high bar

  • Thug ran strong and manhandled that kettlebell like his 23 year marriage

  • I didn’t know what to say about Skippers mustache, so I avoided eye contact

  • Empathy is the work of the day.Tremendous amount of social and political discussion and disagreement.In all things you do, I encourage you to listen with empathy.

  • Thanks to Stapler for giving me the Q this week and many thanks to Mini Me for EH’ing me 8+ years ago at a Mt. Zion “Journey” men’s breakfast.He is such a dreamy guy and I’m forever grateful that he brought me to this group of men.If you feel the same – either that mini me is dreamy or – that you are thankful for the brother who EH’d you, spread the word.Jolly Roger said it best that someone out there is praying for this and they won’t know unless you tell them.Someday YOU might be dreamy too!
