How hard is it to get a coffee order right? Well, obviously, enough to cause one normally congenial and somewhat tranquil Blart to complain and spew explicatives over a FREE coffee! Before a truly enlightening conversation on the nuances of properly ordering a cup-o-Joe some ran, some rode, and one (YHC) just showed to Q! In our series on Leaders & Leadership, we learned about how the “lack” of leadership qualities lead to the My Lai massacre in Vietnam on March 16, 1968. If you’re looking for a great site to visit on Sundays Blart is knocking it out of the park with a little twist on the traditional Q-source where PAX pick someone they deem as a leader (or not) and share with the group.

I picked up the Q at about 9:30 last night coming in from vacation. A Sunday morning Q isn’t that bad y’all should try it. I showed up at 6:15 to see the ruckers off but Orangeman was by himself. He stayed to run with me and we were almost by ourselves until Jane Fonda ran in from his house. The three of us took off and picked up Norwood on our way back. It is good to be home.

YHC prayed
Flintstone arrived to ruck wearing the Iron Sharpens Iron belt and was joined by Maybelline, Woopee, Scrat, and YHC. Winhouse, JJ, Stroganoff, and Roscoe set off for their regular run. Afterwards, Roscoe said something about doctors to Woopee that cannot be repeated here. JJ left; Sledge and Shortsale joined us for QSource & Chapter 5 of The Wisdom of the Bullfrog, which expounded upon the following:
- You must bring energy and enthusiasm every single day.
- You are not entitled to anything but more hard work. The rank and file are working hard and getting paid less.
- Attack each day as though it was critical to the organization’s success
Announcements:
- Convergence on Labor Day at 7am – stay tuned for details
- PT Tests at the end of August
- Coconut Derby August 27 – pre-blast to follow
Prayer request:
