COT

-After a week of thoughtful deliberative process, the Pax reached consensus to give the Wed. workout at Fletcher a name reflective of the solemn, aspirational goals of each man in the F3 framework reflective of the dogged determination of one Irwin M. Fletcher in getting to the bottom of Alan Stanwyck’s would-be murder.

-Indian Summer rode in on a fast horse at Fletcher Park.  All sorts of Kotters to be passed out–Balmy (on a balmy day), Cheech, Cracker.

-I don’t think it’s been documented yet, but the etymology of Lamp’s F3 name has to be spelled out using charts and graphs.  A white board per chance.

-Long time fans of Fletcher will note in the above picture the slight glimpse of Floppy Disk’s yellow stallion sitting amidst the generic sport utility vehicles and sensible sedans driven by Raleigh pax.  Can’t tame 400 horses, Bo.

-Thunder claps to Cousin Eddie Griswold for agreeing to wear a the green dickey in a few weeks as Yuletide approaches.

That is all.
