1. fng-although the first spartanX for some, this was a gloom hardened bunch. will log going fwd.
2. war baby-The Rock
3. war daddy-Dredd
4. crows nest-multiple sightings of an unknown pack of welcome intruders...nudge, nudge...wink, wink. initial sighting of their leader arranging parking lot cones occurred before the day began. the pack eventually revealed themselves by performing a flyby while we were busy on the jungle gym tower. although they passed close by, it was difficult to get good views in the darkness. those disappointed will be relieved to know that we righted that wrong by making a very well-timed flyby of our own after sunrise.
5. buffalo bill-Silence was just that...silent...on the flyby as he was visibly concerned that a few of them may recognize his voice in the darkness. many of them only know his voice...
6. ghost/name change-whiners are rewarded as appropriate...i barely heard the banter behind from behind on the Davy = CrotchRocket transformation, however was in full support. jury is still out on whether he was there to fight back. Dredd's knots only tighten with struggle. my O2 deprived mind is unsure.
7. pub on wheels-triple claps to the $6m man himself for posting after opening and closing down selwyn pub on Thurs. OBT got second hand drunk by the fumes alone. it was an impressive showing right up until you pulled a ghost on us after el cap.
8. man down/souvenirs-Byron (katabasis), Moniteur (outfield speed vault), and McDuece (el Capitan) all left some skin on the trail. Gentlemen, this is noteworthy for three reasons a) none of them slowed down b) this is two of three at spartanX for Moniteur and McDeuce c) Moniteur looks like he has been attached by a pygmy mountain lion. I am beginning to worry.
