NMM
- Apparently I walked in hot and late. Thought I had perfect timing to coolly stroll in at 0530 and give the disclaimer flag in hand, but the mumblechatter revealed that it was 0531.
- War Eagle continues to be a non-conformist with his rock selection. In spite of all of his peers selecting the traditional Pontiff drainage rocks, he continues to use a man-made cinder block. Will War Eagle’s non-conformity lead to amazing success like Bill Bradley’s granny shot free throws, or will he always be viewed as a nut job like the guy that works out barefoot with F3 Nola? Only time will tell.
- Mahatma taught us all an important life principle today. Mahatma had a misshapen rock that was not easy to handle for some of the exercises. After a round where some of the Pax traded rocks, Mahatma ended up with Frac’s rock. Those of you that have posted at Rock City or The Uptowner may be familiar with this beast of a rock. It appears to be a nice oblong shape that would be easy to handle, but once you start with it, you learn that one side weighs about 35 pounds and the other side weighs 15. Remember kids, whatever your struggles are in life, there’s always someone else out there that has it harder than you.
- I suggest we start naming rocks. I imagine that the aforementioned rock did not take kindly to our talk about its one-sided girth. I can hear it protesting “It’s not a toomah!” like Governor Arnold in Kindergarten cop. Therefore this rock shall henceforth be known as Schwarzenegger.
- Strava had my total mileage today at 0.18 miles. That’s a successful Uptowner in my book.
