Vlasic enlightened the Q why the General always did 21 General “Blackjack” Pershing, so instead of the “keep the PAX guessing, or more like Q forgot a count was going on…PAX knew when each rep. would stop for the rest of the BD. It’s also why I love the General shirt, everything on it has some significance to our “Six-Star” General! Need to re-open the pre-order!

COT
TAPs for Vlasic’s Dad for the return of his esophageal cancer – keep him in your thoughts as he goes under the knife Tuesday! Also all week we talked about how as a PAX we show compassion and dignity to our fellow beings to resolve the issues our Nation faces today, we are the change! And to those lives lost in California, Beta brought it up yesterday, we need to EH the Sad Clown, these men are not the “enemy” or “pure evil”, they are misguided. and unfortunate to not find something that we as brothers have gotten to share. So make an effort to not let one pass you by, make an effort to act. Vlasic took us out reminding us why we come out as we do.

Day 5 – It’s a tough thing to do, but after tomorrow, the gauntlet will be dropped for another PAX to pickup the SixQSixAOSixDays challenge. It started as a little CSAUP idea, that I though if anything I would attempt say in the cool days of February, but why wait! Quack took on the challenge of five days in a row (six tomorrow I hope), you don’t have to be Dugger, Cruiser, Britney or Guitar Hero, anyone of us can do it. SYITG at The River! TD or DD Ruck if you can as well!
