Moleskin:
- This was a crowd pleaser. Well done, Termite, on your first — and definitely not last — Q. I’m not sure of the number of reps so let’s just agree on “a whole freaking lot.”
- Seeker: “Termite is living up to his nickname.” Kim Jung: “I wouldn’t want him in my kitchen either.”
- Dredd is coming on Saturday with Crotch Rocket and Sleuth. Be at Dreher if you can.
- Deadline for AmFibious 5K is 8/17.
- After a “who’s the Q” snafu yesterday/this morning, Robber will be taking over the scheduling duties at The Brickpile. After 9 months, YHC completely supports this move. Thank you for offering, Robber!
