I wanted there to be like ten ropes, and you'd have to Donkey Kong Jr across a pit with alligators or something, but the other guys didn't go for it.

I suppose the obstacle inventor doesn't have to worry about a lifetime ban due to failing their own obstacle if they get eaten by an alligator.

That’s what I thought of when I saw a pit with alligators.

You are.  No guarantees that you'll get to run if you're not on the list, but the probability is high.  Unless of course you don't want to.

Yes you can.  Parking is limited, though, do depending on stuff you may need to hike the last quarter mile or catch a ride in.  Nothing a fatman like me can't do, though.

Do the obstacles, eat the peeps, run the half mile, shoot the targets, chug the coke.  That's the fastest and safest way through the course.

It's getting the Peeps down, not keeping them down, that's the challenge.

There'd be a lot more Peepenalties if you weren't allowed a bottle of water to wash them down.

Tell her I'll give her a ride, and have her back home without burning too much time.  If you need help with the kiddo, my wife might be able to hook you up with some assistance.

We can play wife swap.  Just, you know, not like that.


It look like I'm going to have drill that Saturday and Sunday, and I can't get out of it because I'm in charge.  ( )

I also have this training thing for the Navy on Tues-Wed.  So it looks like I'll be able to show up Thurs and run everyone then and Friday, but I'll have to leave at some point Friday evening to get some sleep before drill on Sat.  Make sense?  If not, don't worry about it.

Tell your wife I'll get her and all the swag early Thursday and bring her back Friday evening.



My wife and I will hopefully both run early by a week or two whenever the organizers decide on a date to do the setup.

So, no Trojy kids, my wife won't be able to make the actual event, and I have to leave early.  Just the way it is this year.  But I'll be there, and I'll do everything needed on Friday.  Someone else will just have to take it over the finish line.  That's fine, I know you guys can handle it.

Saturday is the only day I can make it, so we'll see.  

I'll talk to the wife and see if she still wants to run, so surveyor, leave her in the list for now.  But I'm definitely out.

Where is all this gin discussion coming from?  The only gin I recall from last year was the Bombay I was slurping down...but I admit, my memory of that evening was a bit frayed around the edges.  

Since we're doing this in warmer weather, I imagine there will be more beer consumed than last year.  Any idea what you're getting?

Stella is great on tap.

No, this was the first big one I think. It was the birth of Afghanman and Rooster-Cogburn spent most of his time blabbering about terrain, how everything is different overseas and bears. Red moons and "that one time he cleared a room" was tossed in for good measure.

IIRC from the history of shotgun furballs, the screendoor one was from Rick O'Shay and "the war I train for is different" is from peterglenho (who was ultimately banned as familiar).
