There’s something happening here
What it is ain’t exactly clear
There’s a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it’s time we stop, children, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
There’s battle lines being drawn
Nobody’s right if everybody’s wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
It’s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It’s s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
Duff ventured out for a “late” date night movie (9:30pm or even 9:45pm, I suspect). #rebel MacGruber was pleased they went Dutch & left the continental United States after the movie. #romantic Zima fired off a few Forge-seeking Twitter missles & deftly took cover. #hitandrun I’m not sure what the other True Gritters were up to on True Forge eve, but those who showed up for Game 2 of our home & home series appeared confident. Kiper tried to post at Shelly Lake because True Grit doesn’t have a Twitter handle to announce updates. They don’t have a shovel flag either. More on that later. But the True Grit PAX were no doubt emboldened upon hearing: “This will be easy. It’s The Forge.” But wait. Reputations be damned. We at The Forge are here to exorcize the FNG-friendly workout demons. True Grit is here to see what we got. #bringit

YHC COMMENTARY: Zima tried to steal our shovel flag after the workout, but failed. True Grit doesn’t have a shovel flag. If they do, it most likely resides in the same place as their Twitter handle password. #lost In related news, MacGruber is the True Grit site co-Q. #problematic
Thank you PAX for the freedom to lead.
