YHC had my first Q at the Pub.
Pledge
I was feeling creative and original, so I called a different destination – Martha’s River. Roscoe was really confused by this because his knees were so cold and exposed from wearing shorts, so I told him it was was really clever wordplay for Martha Rivers. Off we went and return we did! Good work men!

We celebrated the holiday giving for the Dallas Christian Ministries and Operation Sweettooth with personal YHC examples of those who benefited from those gifts. We are all here purpose and calling. No purpose is greater than and another. If you called to give money or time, do it. If you are called to lead a sunday school class or bible study, embrace it. If you called into ministry, missionary, or service, go.
Joshua 1:9 – Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.

There seems to be an on-going rivalry between the fleet-footed men of The Pub and the ground-pounders of FIAblow…I mean Diablo Sammich. General taunting from Whoopee and his gang of hoodlum elves seems to be a weekly thing! However, I was pleased to see the open invitation to join the ‘sumbritches’ from FIAblow…I mean Diablo….for breakfast at Waffle House.
The men from FIAblow…oops, darn it….Diablo pulled the velcro tight on their bright white New Balance orthopedics and mall-walked to Waffle House. 5 of the 7 HIMs from the Pub ran mostly uphill in freezing temps at a brisk pace to meet up with those ‘sumbritches’ for some fellowship, food, and drink.
It should be noted that head elf Whoopee’s jukebox selectiins started off as, shall we say, questionable. Fortunately, he listened to Boudin (the smart one from FIAblow…oops, gosh, I mean Diablo) and quit playing songs off his daughter’s Ipod.
I am still curious why they made the runners sit in the corner booth, segregated from the mutha ruckers. I suppose all of our manliness and handsome good looks were just too intimidating. We’ll try not to be so awesome next time Whoopee. Thanks for the invite though!

It was an absolutely gorgeous morning for a Christmas Day bootcamp. Unfortunately for the pax that posted it was obvious that they made the naughty list because Santa arrived early with a sleigh full of coal.
Warm up:
20 SSH
20 Moroccan Night Clubs
10 Merkins
Then it was time to unpack Santa’s Sleigh – Each pax was given one garden block
Warm-up continued with curls, overhead presses, and squats with coupons
Thang:
Mosey to concession stand with block – That was terrible – running with a block is not doctor approved.
Dora
50 Blockees
100 Triceps extensions
200 Curls
300 Overhead presses
Next was time to run some more with blocks partner up. One partner runs clockwise the other counterclockwise around concession stand with block when you meet up with partner do 1 Booyah! merkin – continue around to front and do 2 and continue until you get to five then count down back to one. A real crowd pleaser!
Time to mosey back but luckily for pax Santa called an Omaha and we meandered back for some Mary which included American hammers and pelvic thrusters both with blocks
