Not-quite-as-cold-as-it-has-been 45 degrees this morning, slight drizzle that Steve lamented was relenting. 4 HIM tackled the ladders Granny set up this morning. Things we learned this morning: Rummel has/had some fantastic lunch options, none better than daily square pizza and bi-weekly chicken parm on Thursdays. Raider Pride! This statement was …
35º temps may have kept a bunch of the regulars away, but it brought in an old (in all senses of the word, especially compared to his firehouse brethren) regular who was… still on the clock! This meant my original trip down to the tunnel would be off the table …
Things you’ll only hear at Waffle house. This was said as a grown man walked through the door, and decided to tell YHC, Steve, and Russo what business he had to take care of – as if his inner child woke up at that opportune moment. YHC knew it was …
Twas six nights before Christmas, in 2020 it was spurned, but now the year reads 21’, and the nightmare has returned. This workout is intense, you need not take my word, that’s fine. But if you need a reference, Tanked up will tell you I’m not lying. Sometimes we went …
It was great to be back out at the Scramble, especially on a crisp clear morning with Christmas carols in the air! As we began the warm up, a bright pair of head lights made the corner and what to our wondering eyes did appear but Zoolander arriving to spread …

Pax of 8 over at Granny’s yesterday morning, including a new face , Pass Interference. This guy Q’d his farewell Q on Thursday in Atlanta only to then move down to Pearl River over the weekend and post at Granny’s on Tuesday? Huh. Impressive. Also impressive are Granny’s numbers lately. …
Since April 27 of this year YHC has been, for better or worse, persona non grata around the F3 northshore. I’ve done my best to show my face at least enough so that yous guys don’t forget what I look like. The Wacker of bushes has been on a journey …
YHC is a big fan of finding little things to be thankful for every day. Something new or different. Something unexpected. Something unique. Anything to keep me plugged into how blessed we are. Blessings like a bathroom at Grandma’s house. Like a cool, crisp 43 degree morning. Like lunch dates …
I know it says Zoolander was the Q for this one, but that’s only because YHC’s name isn’t on the dropdown menu yet. And, it was ultimately Zoo’s idea to get the fellas from down the bayou to Q a November Lakefront beatdown, and we couldn’t be more grateful! YHC …
