Come on out and play with me at the wonderful world of Pleasantville. It may not be all that jolly, but we’ll have fun being miserable together at least. Looking forward to getting back in the gloom after a few weeks on the PUP / DL list. That said, I’ll be fresh so be readyContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – Wisteria @ Pleasantville w/ Jolly – 05/31/2019”

Back Blast – The Nest – 04/27/2019
When I polled the PAX on who read my back blast, which included a subtle hint about my weinke, there weren’t many who raised their hands. For those history buffs, it was actually on May 6, 1937 to be precise…which was the Hindenburg Blimp disaster. I wasn’t sure how it’d go, especially after Fungi, Fergie andContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – The Nest – 04/27/2019”
Pre-Blast – The Nest on 04/27/2019!
My body hates me today. I’m not sure if Fungi, Fergie or Big Bird is to blame after posting at their Qs this week. The only cure I’ve ever found is to just keep showing up in the gloom because when your whole body hurts vs. just one muscle group your body is so confused itContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – The Nest on 04/27/2019!”
Back Blast – The Loco @ The County with the Ghost Flag, again – 03/26/2019
We all got better on Tuesday at The County – including the Ghost Flag, which has began to take permanent residence alongside the PAX in the OC. A few weeks ago when the Ghost Flag returned from its vacation at another AO, it was clear that something was amiss with our beloved friend. But, overContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – The Loco @ The County with the Ghost Flag, again – 03/26/2019”
Pre-Blast – The Loco @ The County – 03/26/2019
Final week for those participating in the Double Down Challenge – great to see him out this morning still running laps around me on his first post back to the gloom! Come on out to The County and get a little better with me tomorrow morning. Bring your gloves as the coupons will be your newContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – The Loco @ The County – 03/26/2019”
Back Blast – Extender @ The Mutt – 03/21/2019
Zima said it best in his pre-blast – when you mix Jolly Rancher and Zima together it’s almost better than PB&J. What a fantastic mash-up — it’s like it was meant to be. Or, perhaps it was just a ploy by Zima to make sure he didn’t show up to Q a workout by himselfContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – Extender @ The Mutt – 03/21/2019”
Back Blast – Celebration Day at The Chopper – 03/15/2019
In my pre-blast, I informed the waiting PAX that March 15, 2019 at The Chopper was going to be a day of celebration…but, they’d have to attend to find out what was behind the celebration. And for the PAX reading this, if the picture doesn’t give it away I’d ask that you continue reading – orContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – Celebration Day at The Chopper – 03/15/2019”
Pre-Blast – Celebration at The Chopper – 03/15/2019
As the title has it, tomorrow is a time for celebration with ‘ol Jolly Rancher Q’ing at The Chopper. But, you’ll have to join me in the gloom to figure out what we’ll be celebrating together. If that’s not inticing enough, just know that as part of the celebration you will have opportunities to work hard, get betterContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – Celebration at The Chopper – 03/15/2019”
Back Blast – Pre-Nest BO Ruck – 03/02/2019
PAX: Jolly Rancher, Alexa, and Le Pew. We gathered at 5:45am at The County for a little 2nd F and to loosen up the legs before the Alexa beat down at the Nest at 7:00am. We covered about 3.3 miles in a little under an hour. Lots of mumble chatter took place, including confessions aboutContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – Pre-Nest BO Ruck – 03/02/2019”
Backblast – 02/22/2019 – Wisteria – Jolly Legs!
Rolled into Wisteria at Pleasantville a little early so I could do some last minute planning [had to count the light poles…keep reading for why]. It wasn’t long before the headlights and PAX emerged from the gloom. It was great to see so many from my home AO. Those County boys know how to makeContinueContinue reading “Backblast – 02/22/2019 – Wisteria – Jolly Legs!”
Pre-Blast – Wisteria @ Pleasantville – 02/22/2019
Work has kept me away from the gloom more than I’d like over the past few weeks. Fortunately, I knew it’d be this way, which is why I scheduled to Q on Friday — selfishly, to force myself to not use work as an excuse for not posting. I hope you’ll do the same inContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – Wisteria @ Pleasantville – 02/22/2019”
The Nest – Back Blast – 01/26/2019
PAX: BigBird, Le Pew, Trekkie [2.0], The Bus [2.0], Gisele, PK, Viking and Jolly Rancher [Q]. WEATHER REPORT: 28 degrees and 74% humidity – felt great after the first 2 minutes. I arrived about 10 minutes early to do a little setup and was quickly met by PK. Once the setup was done and some goodContinueContinue reading “The Nest – Back Blast – 01/26/2019”
The Nest – Preblast – 01/26/2019
Hey Alexa, what day is the F3 Awards Banquet? Oh, January 25, you say? Hey Bigbird, Site Q Extraordinaire of The Nest, will you PRETTY, PRETTY, PLEASE sign me up to Q on January 26?!? #NotASmartMoveJolly For those hardcore PAX, PAX doing the #weightright challenge that need to push to meet their goals, designated drivers, orContinueContinue reading “The Nest – Preblast – 01/26/2019”
Back Blast – County Black Ops – 11/10/2018

Pre-Blast – VQ ALERT – County Black Ops – 11/10/2018
When Big Bird asked for a HIM to step up and take the Q on Saturday, I went back to my calendar to make sure I could post – because I’ve mooched off of other Qs long enough and it’s time for me to lead. Fortunately, my calendar showed promise of an open Saturday morning. ContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – VQ ALERT – County Black Ops – 11/10/2018”
