COT:
Good encouragement from Emeril about what type of man you want to be and Inseam chipping in some wisdom as well. Big congrats to Swiper for organizing Darth Visor Memorial and for Inseam, Crab Cake and Snowman doing some heavy lifting on the planning and setup.
Prayers for Schneider granddaughter, Dumpster’s daughter and Inseam back to school while getting it done with F3 and accounting gig.
All in all YHC greatly enjoyed being back in action with an amazing group of HIMs accelerating together. Love me some F3 fellas! Let’s keep reaching those who don’t know they need it yet!
