TAPs to Swendsen’s, praise to Ava’s recovery (KFC’s daughter) in becoming cancer free. Reminded PAX of the trials and tribulations our brothers and their families have endured. Take their strength forth and challenge ourselves to maintain such resolve.

Checking Band like it’s the “crack” of social media, even after avoiding Facebook, twitter, my space, Instagram, AIM, chat rooms on VAX terminals, MUDing … over the years, I still can’t avoid the gambler’s reward you get with each post or chat. Once you half ass put your name in the ring, the chatter continues, then after 9 pm, when the chat decries we’ll share the Q duties and go with the flow, I cannot stop thinking we cannot “Be Prepared”, start writing up a routine while laying in bed, watching YouTube videos looking for a modified exercise I can name after a former figure skating champion (still looking for a Dorothy Hamil, Katerina Witt, and the coup de gras, Christie Yamaguchi), it seems to get easier. Finished number 7, I think the count ends and haphazard Q’ing begins. The best way to BD yourself, Q.
