    What does that even mean? What is he saying? I never knw what he’s saying…

    Steve, not sure if you answered my post on the other thread, as I am too lazy to go check it out again…..but how about a celebratory round of beer after an upcoming WOD? I’ll provide it. Is that permitted under the Crossfit guidelines? I’ll leave a cooler at the last station of a workout that was like tonight’s, where you have to travel from place to place. In the spirit of Randy’s birthday, maybe we could do it for birthday WOD’s!

  6. Brad on October 29th, 2009 4:21 am

    You provide the beer, I’ll provide the gullet!

    Darn, have to miss a TGU day… wanted to make sure it wasn’t a fluke.

  7. Brad on October 29th, 2009 4:28 am

    Interesting link Steve… THAT’S TOTALLY MY PROBLEM!

    hehehe just kidding. I just eat too much when I’m not motivated NOT to eat too much.

    Happy Birthday Randy!!!

  8. Tina on October 29th, 2009 12:15 pm

    Happy Birthday Randy! We miss you!

  9. Randy on October 29th, 2009 12:18 pm

    Thanks for the birthday wishes!

  10. scot on October 29th, 2009 12:46 pm

    This morning I did one extra burpee in honor of Randy. Happy Birthday.

  11. stephen on October 29th, 2009 2:08 pm

    Special halloween workout on saturday… Wear a costume!!!

    Spoooky

  12. Kenia on October 29th, 2009 2:33 pm

    Happy Birthday Randy!!!
    Hey what day is the burrito run?

  13. DREW on October 29th, 2009 2:43 pm

    OK, one comment and one question about last night’s workout:

    Comment:
    Contrary to popular belief my hand is not, in fact, broken. It appears to be so in the photo of me with the war hammer, but it is not. I just happen to be weird. This, you all know.

    Question:
    Foot, how’s that neck? Didja’ get the sweat washed off?
    I am imagining big ol’ Footie crouched down in the shower, whimpering quietly to himself… “… can’t get clean… can’t get clean…”

  14. Brad on October 29th, 2009 2:47 pm

    Funny how we all imagine different things…. I was imagining him (not in the shower btw, you can imagine him in the shower) saying “It burns! It burns!”

    It was great having so many people show up to the Sinister Sixers class!

    Will there be any BEAST attempts tonight??? Take videos!

    Steve, did you video me doing the beast? I hadn’t see it yet if you have.

  15. Brad on October 29th, 2009 2:50 pm

    Hah. Looks like I’m growing out of the back of Foot’s neck.

  16. stephen on October 29th, 2009 2:53 pm

    The burrito run I believe will be saturday Nov 14th…

    Brad sorry no video

  17. Kenia on October 29th, 2009 4:33 pm

    Hey guys and gals can you help me out?? I need “BRADISIMS” for my shirt. The only one I have so far is: “I have too much Lactid Acid” I need a couple more to throw on the shirt…. any ideas??
    Oh and Tina what about dressing as JEM the cartoon rocker chick from the 80’s. She was bad a$$ I even have a guitar that u can borrow!!!

  18. Dave B on October 29th, 2009 5:20 pm

    kenya, are you going to wear hockey gloves? or will your doms be too much that you can’t move to put them on?

  19. Steve on October 29th, 2009 5:33 pm

    Kenia
    here is a good one “I have a slight case of DOMS”

  20. Brad on October 29th, 2009 5:59 pm

    Kenia, how can you forget the DOMS??!! hahahaha

    That’s gonna be the best halloween costume ever!!!

  21. DREW on October 29th, 2009 6:09 pm

    “Lactic Acid” — just want to make sure you spell that right on the shirt. :)

  22. Kenia on October 29th, 2009 6:26 pm

    OOHHH snap thanks Drew…..

  23. stephen on October 29th, 2009 6:34 pm

    Shirts are in!!! Come n get em…

  24. DREW on October 29th, 2009 6:51 pm

    Save a Large shirt for me!

  25. Randy on October 29th, 2009 7:11 pm

    Large shirt for me.

  26. Vic on October 29th, 2009 7:24 pm

    How do they look? Medium for me and a small for my wife.

  27. Brad on October 29th, 2009 7:29 pm

    Medium shirt for me.

    I wanna look like this:

  28. DREW on October 29th, 2009 7:38 pm

    So, there is this guy over the wall, in the next aisle here at work…
    For days now, he has been snorting big gobs of snot about once per minute. I’d like to break a chair over his snot-snorting head, but feel that such a response is perhaps a bit extreme. All suggestions as to how to deal with this fu—(ummm, I mean “person”) would be greatly appreciated.

  29. Brad on October 29th, 2009 7:51 pm

    Yes, and especially since I’m sitting about 8 feet closer to this noser hoser than Drew is, I’m highly vested in a potential solution.

    *SSSSNNNOOOOORRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHGGGHHGGHHGGHH*

  30. Dave B on October 29th, 2009 7:52 pm

    xL 4 me plz – thnx :)

    @drew – get him a box of tissues.

  31. DREW on October 29th, 2009 8:30 pm

    OK, does anybody with a darker heart than Dave have any ideas?
    :)

  32. scot on October 29th, 2009 8:50 pm

    The other day I saw a high school girl come off the soccer field with a tampon stuck up her nose! Apparently, she had a bloody nose and this permitted her to continue playing. That easy to pull string looked quite odd! Its just a suggestion. (Some people suggest that you put “napkins” in an emergency first aid kit to use as a compress for an injury… wings? or no wings?)

  33. DREW on October 29th, 2009 8:56 pm

    See? Scot gets it.

  34. Vic on October 29th, 2009 8:57 pm

    Oddly enough Scott very common among wrestlers with bloody noses. They are extremely exorbant. We do cut off the strings. It will be hard to sneak that into his nose.

    I say crack a few jokes and maybe he will unintentionally snot rocket whatever it is that he is trying so desperately to hang onto.

  35. Randy on October 29th, 2009 9:25 pm

    Drew and Brad:
    I say scare him with stories of H1N1 epidemic. Maybe you can convince him to leave work sick.
    Since I am not at crossfit ignite, someone slay the beast for my birthday!

  36. Randy on October 29th, 2009 9:28 pm

    I was just looking at pictures from the last few days. Looks like Foot and Drew are the first team in the Crossfit Ignite Chicken-Fights League.

  37. DREW on October 29th, 2009 10:03 pm

    C.I.C.F.L. Bring it.

  38. Kenia on October 30th, 2009 12:07 am

    Drew what if you fart every time you pass by his desk…. and if he ever complains you can say that you will stop farting as soon as he stops snorting. The question is how are you going to fart ever time you pass by his desk?? try eating beans.

  39. Brad on October 30th, 2009 12:09 am

    Snot Rocket… hahaha

    INCOMING!!!!!!

    Any beast attempts tonight or what?
