MOLESKIN:

  • Solid work by all pax today.  Great to see all of the Fallout regulars, and thanks to my Birkdale CC crew for making the trip to RBP, one of my favorite AOs in Isotope.
  • Tclaps to Burnt Endz, who was out for his 3rd post and getting after it this morning. Great to see you out there again, brother.
  • Thanks to Turnpike and Kumquat for doubling back to retrieve YHC for the #standard after I came in hot (er, late) due to my 2.0 getting sick this morning just as I was about to leave the house.  (Special thx to my M for taking over as I rushed out the door….)
  • To my chagrin, Major Tom informed me that the first part of my workout was identical to what Ramrod did at Excelsior.  Two days ago.  At the same AO.  Cobains…. hopefully MT was the only one who had to go through that twice.
  • Thanks to Eeyore and Auto for the EH 7 months ago.  Best gift anyone could have given.  Let's continue to give this gift.  Thanks to TBone for the keys this morning.
  • The Greatest, Muhammad Ali, would have turned 75 today.  Say what you will about his hubris, his was a remarkable life.  "Don't count the days, make the days count," he once said.  Have to agree with him.  See you all again soon.

Aye,
