Last nights rains moved out and took all the humidity with, leaving this morning’s sunrise to a glorious 70 and sunny…..best feeling day in a long while!  What better way to greet the day than with an hour of play time outside!  24 warriors did just that. I promised TYA that if he came this morning, we would run a mile to start it off.  This caused some confusion for the under-caffeinated pax, as they put it in autopilot and headed for the carillon.  Shakedown about had a head on collision, but quickly straightened it out and we made our…

First, a history lesson… Bereshit bara Elohim et hashamayim ve’et ha’aretz. When in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was untamed and shapeless.  (God created man to shape it, and gave Men F3 to help other Men shape each other.) Later that week, a serpent (F3: Salazar) slithered up to his FNG buddy Adam (F3: Steve Jobs) and EH’d him.  Both men posted to AO Hothouse, where Salazar encouraged…
