The "Goat" is tomorrow. If you are unaware of this, you must have lived under a rock for the past month.

Raygo - For the last time, watch "The Program" after soccer tomorrow. Steak Knives - The coach in "Varsity Blues" is Jon Voight. His daughter is Angelina Jolie. Angelina Jolie was married to Brad Pitt. Brad Pitt and Kevin Bacon were in "Sleepers." I can play this game all day. Leroy Brown: If Raygo were nice, he'd invite you to his house tomorrow to watch "The Program." Blood Donor, it was a great day for you. You heard ACDC and found two tennis balls for your dog. Hoveround - I wish you knew how much I admire you! 10 Count -I am so sick of hearing about how heavy your "balls" are.
Mr. Kotter - How does it feel to be born with "six-pack" abs?

Beautiful morning to host my first Q ever. Had great guidance from all of the PAX. Very thankful for this group, especially Buddy the Elf for introducing me to F3.

We did a 10 min run/quick pace walk (Indian run) while the sun was coming up on Wrightsville Beach this morning. At the end of the 10 min., we went straight into a circuit that totaled 100 reps of various exercises, then turned back for another 10 min run/fast paced walk (Indian run style), followed by the same circuit to end the workout. The PAX gave me great feedback for my first Q and it was a great morning!
