Happy 40th Saban! Since YHC couldn’t attend the Wisner party, he thought he’s bring a little birthday love to another AO. Weather was delightful for an August morning: almost chilly, in fact! 4 PAX took off from the virtual flag to start their Friday right.
Mosey to the rocks for a quick warmup with some slow stretching (crack – the sound of YHC’s back popping as he tries desperately to loosen up). SSH, Imperial Walkers. Then lets get busy. Grab a rock, and feel free to go big since we aren’t going anywhere.
The Thang: Deck of Death. We all know the drill.
Breakout the brand new deck, shuffle, explain
Hearts: We’ll do some Curls for the Girls celebrating their birthdays today: Ginger Spice (49) and Marissa Miller (43). If you don’t know Marissa, you weren’t getting the SI Swimsuit issue back in the day…
Spades: Shoulder Presses to recognize some SPorts birthdays. David Robinson (56), Robin von Persie (38 – look him up. RevSox apparently doesn’t recognize Football as a real sport), Mike Greenberg (54)
Diamonds: Merkins to celebrate the American Glitz of Hollywood. Lucille Ball (RIP, 110) and Leslie Odom Jr (40)
Clubs: Dr. Ws. Why? Cultural Icons Andy Warhol (RIP, 93) and the World Wide Web (30 – Tim Bernard Lee released the protocols that give birth to WWW in 1991).
Turned on YHC playlist (which Amnesty proceeded to openly mock. And he was not wrong. It was a bad playlist. YHC will correct for future workouts). RevSox politely asks if we are ever going to work out (as this explanation took a few minutes). Then lets go.
Lots of early and high Club cards, leading to LOTS of DR Ws early. PopTart seemed not to care as he just kept knocking them out.
JOKER – Surprise! M. Night Shaylan (51). Lets do 11 burpees (for 11 award nominations for Sixth Sense)
Finished up. Where was the 2nd Joker? Never appeared. So YHC played a virtual 2nd JOKER! Surprise! Mountain Climber x40 for Saban!
Brief time for some EMOM 8-cts, then mosey back to the flag for our COT. Thanks for letting me lead! And Happy Birthday to all August 6th celebrants!
NMM: What else happened on August 6th? Hiroshima. YHC asks first for an end to all wars, that we may learn how to live in peace with those with whom we have differences; and second for wisdom for leaders around the world who are faced with what may be impossible decisions – give the your grace and guidance.
