We are one Brotherhood
15 came out on this mild morning, not knowing what they would be doing. The point is, they got out of bed and came anyway. There were no FNG's (although there was a Kotter - Dog Pound, welcome back!) so I gave the…

Light Pole Work
For what looked to be a rainy morning the night before, I was pleased to see we would have a dry morning, except for the sweat from the less than moderate work I had planned. Ballroom is a great AO and is also moderate…

Jedi's Post-iversa-Q
You would think that I’d have some sort of snarky intro to open my backblast for my anniversary Q. But, writer’s block. I blame peanut M&M coma. #keepingitclydesdale YHC was pleasantly surprised when 11 PAX joined me in…

Give Me Liberty Or Give Me Burpees
A sticky, pre-July 4th convergence group showed at THE Ballroom. The Pax answered the Siren Song published on the Twitter machine put out by YHC. Pleasantries exchanged, disclaimer was disclaimed. Let get to it. Mosey…

Christmas In June - Footloose Breakdance Style
I saw my opportunity and took it. Beacon offered up the lead this week for Footloose and I had an evil plan in mind. It had been a while since I q'd a 12 Days of Christmas fun fest, probably since last Christmas if not…

Less Planning = More Pain
Somehow, it slipped YHC’s radar that today’s Golden Corral Q fell on him. Nevertheless, when this truth was brought to light 8 hours before launch, frantic efforts were made to plan SOMETHING. Six PAX joined YHC to…

Steal the flag, pop the balloon
It started with bacon. Well, really it started with Cha Ching’s Q last week, where fifth grade games were the theme of the day. In planning the weinke for today, YHC decided to stick with this theme, and the first game…

Ask and Q's show up...with a couple day old weinkes!

Broga and Pole work at the Ballroom
The PAX were in for a treat as we started out the warm up with some routine Broga. This obviously started after I did the disclaimer since I'm no where close to a professional like Sasquatch. There was a lot of mumble…

Of Relays and Dance Parties
Truth be told, YHC is losing his mind. When I was asked to Q at the Deep for the return of the 0630 launch, my first thought was, “Hey! That AO is at a school. I don’t normally post at schools. I should do something to…
