Moleskine:
> Some of the pre-launch Twittermumblechatter appeared to be some sort of scrambled code meant to confuse. No doubt a bogey who snuck into neutral territory uninvited.
> In other news, at some point YHC was asked by one PAX member if it was okay to go invisible shirt. Not being known as a fashion consultant or setter of trends, this was a perplexing query. But for future reference, YHC will make an executive call: Invisible Shirts always welcome at Iron Eagle.
#BigKotters to Hermie.
> In other other news, Michelob, clearly seeking to beef up his flight log, checked off Whiplash and then flew the Iron Eagle. Intel says he is likely a Cyborg.

Announcements:
Haven House – Be there Tuesday
Sasquatch in Greenville – Ask Horse Hair or Pepe or check the F3Greenville Tweeters
4 Miles on the 4th – Run it. Ask Bigglesworth, but not about the start time
Pepe has the 6/16 Q for Iron Eagle. Do it.

Prayers:
For Headgear’s wife’s continued healing, recovery
For Man Ram, Rain Man, Java and others who have lost family members
For Fazio’s wife and daughter traveling
For every man to be a present Dad (if you have kids)
For every Dad to be wise

YHC asked the PAX to call to mind 1-2 things that are needs—spoken or unspoken for prayer. Then mentioned Psalm 18.1 “I love you O LORD, my strength.” Let’s make that our prayer, men.
Pig Pen did the honors. Thank you, brother.
Tuck, out.
