YHC arrived (almost) last, just in time for
\nWarmarama:
\nSSH
\nAnd of course, having finished SSH, here comes the straggler\u2026 wait\u2026 Honeysuckle?
\nApparently Safety Valve inspires us all in some way or another.
\nOn to the rest: Windmills,
\nThe arm bundle: Lafayette Night Clubs, arm circles both ways, cherry pickers
\nMountain Climbers
\nThen YHC handed the PAX off to Pope to lead a quick mosey while I grabbed my props.<\/p>\n

Thang One: The Breath of God
\n\u201cOnly the penitent man shall pass\u201d
\nThe penitent man is humble, kneels before God. As Indy knelt when the breeze blew through the cave, so would we.
\nThe theoretical plan: Lunge walk back and forth across the field, and each time there is a breeze, we would do one genuflection.
\nThe modified plan: Because we live in the doldrums here with no breezes, something else would have to substitute. Taking a page from Smooth Operator, each vehicle that passed would qualify as our breeze.
\nThat made sense when YHC came up with it last week, as there was no hurricane coming. The coming storm actually gave a bit of a breeze this morning. More importantly, it brought lots more traffic.
\nPerfect.
\nOh, also \u201cListen Like Thieves\u201d by Inxs on the W-King. Also genuflect when you hear \u201cknees.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thang Two: The Name of God. But not really the Name of God. More Like Kinda Like a Name that Got Made into a Name that Some People Might Consider a Moniker of God?
\nOk get ready. Please be patient as your blast goes off on a historical and semantic tangent. . .
\n In the film, \u201cthe name of God\u201d is said to be \u201cJehovah\u201d (spelled with an I instead of a J), but apparently this is only an artificial Latinized rendering of the name of God. Some Christians in the Middle Ages combined the consonants in YHWH and the vowels of Adonai (\u201cMy Lord\u201d) and somehow came up with Jehovah. Thanks to Goosapedia for this and don\u2019t forget to donate now.
\nSooooo\u2026 although technically not correct, this name was created by Christians in the Middle Ages, which according to the film is when the Knights Templar set up this whole thing\u2026 I don\u2019t know, but anyway it starts with an \u201cI\u201d also and let\u2019s get back to the Thang here\u2026
\nWe did 50 Jackhammers to get the letter J out of our system, then ran a Dora-mod for the rest of \u201cIehova\u201d which at face value was the word Indiana Jones spelled out on the path in the movie.
\nI = 100 Imperial Squat Walkers, 100
\nE= 150 \u201cEl Valvinos\u201d which I decided were SSH. Much less controversial name change here.
\nH= 200 Hand Release Merkins
\nO= 150 Oh nos (changed to 1=1 mid-stream due to time)
\nV= 100 V-ups
\nA= 50 Absolutions, but time was called on this first, so that we could get to <\/p>\n

Thang Three: \u201cOnly in the leap from the Lion’s Head will he prove his worth.\u201d
\nIt\u2019s a leap of faith. Something we\u2019ve all taken at some point. It typically results in a stronger faith when you are done. So we took several leaps, having faith that we could do what our bodies said we couldn\u2019t. Which was Broad Jump Burpees to the opposite sidewalk and back. Right about the time Goose and Pope got there, a gracious Q called \u201crecover\u201d and we headed to <\/p>\n

The Final Thang: The Grail Room
\nUpon the stage were set several items we associate with F3: A coupon, a ticket, a cone, a pair of gloves, and a coffee thermos. Under each was written an exercise.
\nThe instructions: Choose one. The first chosen, we will do 40 of whatever is written under it. For the second chosen, we will do 30, then 20, 10, 5.
\nSafety Valve volunteered to choose first. And he chose\u2026 poorly. But it was perfect. Choosing the false grail, aka the coffee thermos, he gave us Burpees, and 40 would be the number\u2026 unless someone could identify the theme of the songs today, in which case I would cut the numbers in half.
\nNo one could, so we set to burpin\u2019 while YHC prodded the PAX to think, think! (I didn\u2019t want to do 40 burpees). The PAX recounted the songs\u2026 Listen Like Thieves\u2026 Electric Feel\u2026 Brown Sugar\u2026 Smells like Teen Spirit\u2026 Double Vision\u2026
\nSuddenly it clicked (I think with a few, but I heard Goose first) and we reduced our number to 20. Next pick was the ticket, so we did 15 BBS, then several questioned whether the speaker was in play, to which YHC only said \u201cchoose wisely.\u201d Of course no one chose the speaker, since it was in the middle of the circle, but that was the final test. Of course under The Wu of Kings it simply said, \u201cYou have chosen\u2026 wisely.\u201d And that would have been the end.
\nBut it was time, so it was the end anyway. <\/p>\n

COT
\nYHC was humbled as both The Fire within and the BluTube were bestowed upon him. Enron prayed us out.<\/p>\n

Thanks for coming out men. Always an honor to lead.<\/p>\n
