Preamble:
Good to see some numbers flowing back in for the #beatdowns and 2nd/3rd F coffeteria work. Great to see two FNGs showing up and working hard and getting a visit from FlowMax.
Shout out to Cookie. He had plans for me to grab the Q and for him to secretly take it. Apparently, a gate with a bad attended wrecked those plans. Praying he is back to snuff for the GrowRuck event.
