• When: 2019-01-05
  • QIC: Arrears
  • The PAX: Moose (Knuckle), JD (1/2 workout), Milkman (#respect), Skunky, Depends (#respect), STH, Penthouse, A1A, Lapdog, Boxwine, Hokey Pokey, Bumblebee, Faulkner, Devito, Fool's Gold


SHIFT WORK

Reflection: YHC is not really sure what happened during this Q. When YHC took the available date to Q, he figured we would just chill, have a good time, joke around etc. Especially considering that our beloved handball has been tabled due to the recent Seattle type weather in our area. THIS IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED AT ALL – the Q seemed easier on paper while it was being drafted about an hour before go time.

Quick observation on numbers: WOW the PAX were really rolling in, even had good ol’ Faulkner (OG Handball) join us mistakenly. Impressive numbers, considering there was only one representative from the esteemed Lakeside neighborhood. Keep up the great work guys!

Conditions: Cold but not cold, you know I’m sayin’? The wind was whipping with the same strength and force as Shakira’s* hips in her recent hit “Trap” featuring Maluma – that is say “strong.”

Disclaimer:

It was given, but the PAX were carrying on like a pack of unruly wolves.

Warm Up:

Not seeing Bellhop, one of the star members of the Depot Legal Defense Squad (DLDS)**, in our circle of amigos, YHC scrapped his original warm-up to invoke the spirit of Bellhop. Which would not be easy for YHC considering my Fear of Counting (FoC).

Great work today by everyone. Good to see some old faces and welcome some who don’t usually post at Depot on Saturdays. 

We all have a choice to make in the mornings. Let’s make the harder choice and get better in 2019!

* YHC had a quick wardrobe change that had nothing to do with thinking of Shakira.
