Safety First!
Temp: 21 degrees, Snoooow, and 25 mph winds… bbrrrrr.
PAX (10): E-85, Two-Step, Porta John, Grease Fire, U-Haul, Dome, Bovine, Dr. Thunder, Sticky Bandit, Othello
QIC: Othello and U-Haul
#mumblechatter: Doppler was the original Q, but was unable to make it due to the weather conditions. T-Claps to U-Haul and Sticky Bandit for helping YHC figure out the flow of the beatdown during the snowy and windy morning.
#mumblechatter: U-Haul made it clear he was NOT co-q’ing during the introduction and that he was just the timekeeper since YHC forgot his watch at home… However, YHC appreciated U-Haul and his willingness to help.
#mumblechatter: When YHC ran from one field, Two-Step immediately said, “How can I help, what do I need to do?” T-Claps to Two-Step for willing to step in right away to help lead… YHC thought “this is the CoT in itself… very cool! No pun intended.
No FNG today

Message from the Q:
“For safety is not a gadget, but a state of mind.” – Eleanor Everet
Here are a couple of points I would like to make this gloomy and crazy morning:
- Safety first!
- Lean in!
Doppler was the original Q this morning but due to the weather conditions, he was unable to make it down. When he texted me this morning, I was hoping he wasn’t freaking out because I knew the guys who post at Future were going to take care of him. In fact, I admired Doppler for being open and communicative about his situation. OF COURSE take care of yourself! Safety is a main priority in life.
I mean, you only get one shot at life, so be careful! I always tell my students “If you really have to think about doing something, maybe you shouldn’t do it.”
So. Just remember to be careful and play it safe.
It’s great to see guys wanting to contribute and help each other. This morning is a fine example of what it means to shield lock with each other. Sometimes I have to remind myself it is OKAY to accept help from others and to lean in to those you know you can trust. This is what strengthens our brotherhood, our PAX, and our community.
Lean in and shield lock!
Aye!
