NMS YHC was having great difficulty thinking of exercises last night, so texted Mudface, who responded with a barrage of possibilities.  One of those was lumberjacks, and YHC thought “200 Lumberjacks, sounds great!”  Yeah, not so much, those were quickly modified to lawnmowers.  There was a lot of mumblechatter this morning, which only…
