Rolling Stone: So, AB, tell us about this beatdown you just wrapped up. What was the vibe at the AO? America’s Best: I was equally surprised by the wealth of knowledge out there and the lack of flatulence. . . Some mornings are just magical, I guess. We started with …
12 men (big and little) gathered courageously at The Peltch for the final, brutal IPC of 2024. For one in particular, it took a lot of courage: the soon-to-be-named L-loyd, Safety Valve’s FNG 2.0, Peyton saw a circle of large, surly men grunting through the dark morning’s tightness, one of …
This morning YHC got to the Den early to try and troubleshoot the basketball court lights but ended up successfully turning off the lights for the pickle ball court. Unfortunately Tana and Dilly were not there and could not be persuaded to put the paddle down and pick up a …
Nine men Came Together at the Lion’s savannah for the 55th anniversary of Something. What exactly that was, we’d have to find out later. First a good warmarama, and thorough, was needed, with the usuals. Then a mosey through Aldi’s parking lot to Rienzi drive, through the St Francis vegetable …
YHC has always loved a good origin story. Forged in radioactive slime or some gamma rays gone wrong? Sign me up. But there’s also a lot of really interesting beauty to be discovered in the story behind the routine and mundane we take for granted. Microwaves , penicillin, Velcro, HoneySuckles …
Constitution Day 2024: A little known day of recognition for the signing of the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1787. YHC felt it was only appropriate to take the PAX back to school for a little quiz on this heralded document in order to verify the citizenship of the group …
YHC arrived (almost) last, just in time for Warmarama: SSH And of course, having finished SSH, here comes the straggler… wait… Honeysuckle? Apparently Safety Valve inspires us all in some way or another. On to the rest: Windmills, The arm bundle: Lafayette Night Clubs, arm circles both ways, cherry pickers …
A few of us had waited till the regular Saturday, Peltch-fest IPC time to crank out the hoagies and grinders, I mean burpees and thrusters. Or, maybe we were grateful for the chance to put it off till the last minute. As the expected PAX waded in through the waste …
It was a beautiful morning. The stars shone bright. But, only three little PAX decided to put up a fight. Those three little Pax were in fact not so little. They all thought they were as mighty as Diddle. Pope with his 17, I mean 16, year old endurance. Goose …
YHC has always been fascinated by what the human body can do under extreme pressure. YHC recently listened to a podcast interview of Cole Hocker, and he described basically blacking out on the last leg of his crazy gold medal 1500m finish. WILD right? But it got me to thanking. …
