14 faithful Pax rose to the frosty early morning gloom of the Crypt for a brick-heavy beatdown delivered lovingly by YHC. Thumbs Up is back in the gloom after being released by the doc which means he had mumblechatter bursting at the seams ready to spew forth. Unfortunately for YHC there were several other mumblechatter ninjas in Take-a-Number, Pepto and Blindside posting so the Pax got a two for one special today. Kinda like dinner and a movie except a lot more suck was involved.

COT
BOM – led by Ken Doll – Remember what the reason for the season is!
The Moleskin:
- Kotters to Thumbs Up on his returning from the DL. The humor was definitely appreciated. It makes the suck more bearable
- Strong work by the Pax in less than ideal conditions. The Crypt has a diverse set of guys of all abilities so it is always a challenge for YHC to deliver a solid workout for everyone.
- T-claps to Ken Doll for escaping Shawshank to Q Boneyard and lead everyone in the BOM.
- Birthday wishes to Blue Screen…Hope you enjoyed your present…it was burpees.
Announcements:
- Christmas party is Dec 19th. HC to Ken Doll by Friday with a headcount if you plan on attending.
- Prayers for Say What?! for his speedy recovery from surgery as well as for all of the Pax on the DL.
