Spreadsheets from the Gloom:
_ FNGs: Rushmore – Gilbert Bailey, former competitive fencer; CT/Nicodemus (first time with the AG crew, but a veteran of the Campos and GONADS, and my (OBT’s) original sponsor on the Campos).
_ Kotters: When you have been on vacation and missed 3 Saturdays, you’re not sure who’s a Kotter and who’s not. If you are, welcome back.
_ Esptein's Mother: Dredd (out with a knee); SixMike; MMOB (vacation).
_ Of course, the most noteworthy absence from the Saturday workout, for the first time since 1/1/11, was that of Waco. While his absence on New Year's Day DQed him from the original Last Man Standing competition, his streak of 26 straight Saturdays deserves recognition and respect. The next HDHH beer is on me, Waco.
_ It didn't escape notice that even after time was called in the PTF, Tango Delta made a point of holding his plank for a couple of extra seconds. But intense? Nah, not TD ... just a laid-back, easygoing Jimmy Buffet kinda guy ...
