Semper Fidelis

AO: Firehouse

When: 2024-11-12

QIC: Better Call Saul

PAX (5): Better Call Saul, Fish Fingers, Lightweight, Seaman, Suárez, Komrad (for COT)

Preamble:

It was supposed to be the long awaited, highly anticipated return of Toadstool to Firehouse and he had the Q.  The excitement was palpable as you could see from the excessive use of emojis on the Slack pre blast.  But alas, it was not to be as Toadstool's baby daughter conspired to deprive him of his much needed rest and the end result was a fartsack.  YHC took the Q about 5:15.

Warm-O-Rama:

Took a lap around the football field while YHC decided what we should do and, against my better judgment, polled the PAX for ideas.

The Thang:

We and Me decided to head to the Firehouse and back with pain stations along the way.  We did a couple of rounds each of merkins, situps, calf raises, Rosalitas, squats, shoulder taps, SSH etc. We also did a round of Mary at the end adding fire hydrants and a plank.

COT:

Komrad showed up and surprised us at COT.  He just finished USMC boot camp and is headed to Camp Lejeune soon for more training.  We got a chance to pray for him and his family.  Also prayers for Suarez's wife who is having surgery soon. 2nd F will be on Thursday November 21 - location is TBD. Seaman birthday Q this Thursday

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Komrad coming by was appropriate as we observed Veterans Day on Monday.  Thanks to all of our vets and vets to come for the sacrifice made to serve our country. Semper Fidelis - "always faithful"; whether a Marine or not, this is a motto to live by when it comes to our responsibilities to our family, our vocation and our community.  Let's live so that when we are gone, this is how we would be described.
