Introduction
What I planned to be a normal Q and Preblast ended up turning into weird and wild shenanigans in the Preblast once I was informed it was Second Best’s Birthday yesterday and was told to “have fun with it”! Now I think I might have scared off some newer PAX and possibly got banned in 3 countries!

Circle of Trust
With the kids going back to school I wanted to share some words of wisdom I’ve recently heard:
“If you’re fortunate enough you will spend majority of your life knowing your kids as adults but for a brief moment you will get to know them as kids.” So cherish that short time you have with them as kids, laugh, play and bond with them. Put a smile on their face!
“Anytime you are getting frustrated with your kids just close your eyes and imagine you are 80 years old and you have a Time Machine that is bringing you back to this very moment and this is the only moment you will get with them again when they’re young.” Before reacting to quick pause and think about how you respond.
Life is too short to be angry all the time, be the reason you put a smile on somebody’s face.
Naked Man Moleskin
I wanted to do all upper body and work to get the PAX to muscle failure, I believe most got there. We finished all 3 rounds with 8 minutes to spare so we went back to round 1, maybe add a 4th round next time.
It was great welcoming back Celler Dweller for his 2nd post and celebrating Singer’s 43rd post!
Thank you to PeeWee for having the 6!
Second Best forgot his coupon and used Bunker’s 10 lb sandbag while he talked about Chinchillas the whole time!
