Damn goat. That’s exactly what I thought last night when I read today’s WOD.

I honestly didn’t mean to miss my goat this morning, but I totally overslept. Will try to make this one up on Saturday.
ray on March 26th, 2009 8:24 am

Nice job testing out the newly named P.O.S. (thanks Liz!)

“Kiss me by the phone” tortured poor Mike Mc this am!

Yes I watched “I’m on a boat” and can see the Skanks rockin that in Floribama!

Baaaaaa to you Jess!
Reagan on March 26th, 2009 8:44 am

Will be in tonight as planned. Prob will do the POS since I got my fill of 800 m runs on Tuesday

This weather makes me sleepy
Liz on March 26th, 2009 8:55 am

Unfortunately, I can’t take credit for the P.O.S name..That was all FJ!
Reagan on March 26th, 2009 9:02 am

How long did it take?
FJ on March 26th, 2009 9:04 am

15 – 20 min
FJ on March 26th, 2009 9:05 am

And it really is a POS
Maddy on March 26th, 2009 9:07 am

Ray that video is great! “I got my swim trunks, and my Flippy Floppies”
FJ on March 26th, 2009 9:08 am

Posiden looked at meeeeeee!
Joey on March 26th, 2009 9:09 am

Need more black or gray shirts with skulls and/or zombies and/or dead decaying stuff on them.
Joey on March 26th, 2009 9:10 am

Maybe a zombie with a knee brace trying to do an air squat.
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 9:25 am

I still think a full length terry cloth bathrobe with the crossfit logo on back would save everyone a lot of grief and keep the new members from freaking out

T pain and conference calls don’t mix well.
Maddy on March 26th, 2009 9:51 am

MikeR I liked the ShamWOW idea better!
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 9:53 am

I don’t think a zombie with a knee brace is intimidating
Joey on March 26th, 2009 9:58 am

no but it is sarcastic, dark, and dreary…so i like it.
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 9:58 am

Hey Ray…what are our choices for shirts?? I want to give you some MOOlah!
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 9:59 am

The ShamWow has more absorption capacity, but yellow isn’t my color.
bridget on March 26th, 2009 9:59 am

Here is the link:

Whitney on March 26th, 2009 9:59 am

dark and dreary…just like our weather today. ha we are going to make to competition feel dreary and not want to take on CFPT!
Maddy on March 26th, 2009 10:05 am

Maybe we can talk Vince into making a blue/purple ShamWOW just for you
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 10:05 am

Mike, you need a snuggie!!
Maddy on March 26th, 2009 10:06 am

No No No Whitney… A snuggie is open in the back. Not ideal for any CFPT P.O.S
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 10:07 am

Thanks, Bridget! Are all the T-shirts white?
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 10:14 am

OH goodness… bad mental picture of mike in a snuggie, purple spandex and a smile. Thanks for ruining my breakfast Whit!

I’d love to have a dark color T-shirt too…. preferable in the sham wow material
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 10:15 am

Mountain climbers…. don’t know what these things are, but I have a feeling they are gonna suck
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 10:15 am

Haha. Oh yeah I forgot they were open in the back…definitely not ideal for Mike’s situation.
Joey on March 26th, 2009 10:18 am

Ryan, you are the warchief for the war room? http://lh6.ggpht.com/kirmu87/SNU80gDSFtI/AAAAAAAAA_Y/1UQ6uJHx6KY/s512/DSCN1219.jpg
Dan on March 26th, 2009 10:19 am

Who has breakfast at 10:15?

Mountain climbers are real fun!
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 10:20 am

I’m afraid of heights… so I think I will sub out eye blinks for the 25 mountain climbers.

Whatever.. breakfast at 10:15 is what cool people do (or people who overslept this morning)
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 10:23 am

The suspense was killing me so I looked up what mountain climber was. Apparently I went to the website for blonde people who work out.

Step 7: Remember to inhale and exhale steadily during the entire mountain climber exercise.

Thank god they told me….
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 10:30 am

Jenn, there has to be a reason they had to post that on the blonde website..Hundreds of blondes must have died because they forgot to breathe doing mountain climbers…

(The sound of Mike seriously looking into making ShamWoW shirts, eliminating tidal estuaries from Crossfit gyms around the world..)
Joey on March 26th, 2009 10:32 am

If you made those shirts they’d probably weigh more than Ray’s vest after a tough workout.
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 10:35 am

Mike, you could make a killing! A whole ShamWoW line is born out of CFPT!! You should start thinking of names.
FJ on March 26th, 2009 10:35 am

I would like to point out that a robe or a shamwow shirt would absorb all of your sweat, however, the robe or shamwow shirt will get heavier with sweat as the workout progresses. This will cause you to inadverntly go full retard or heavier by the end of every WOD.
FJ on March 26th, 2009 10:35 am

Looks like Joey and I are on the same page with this one.
FJ on March 26th, 2009 10:37 am

Mike’s Shamwow line could be called Shamu
Joey on March 26th, 2009 10:37 am

Sham-moo
Jess A on March 26th, 2009 10:38 am

Why did you oversleep, Jenn? Was it because of the delicious daquiri concoction you posted about on facebook yesterday??
Joey on March 26th, 2009 10:43 am

Fell off the paleo train for a while…trying to get back on today:

Shout out to JV for opening my eyes to frozen blueberries. Smoothies with these are way better (and cheaper) than fresh berries if you ask me. Been on a steady diet of 2 cups of blue berries, 2% milk and chocolate protien powder every morning. It def. hits the spot.

I was also getting sick of turkey, so I found some kick ass buffalo chicken sandwich meat at fresh market. I saw sugar and some other bad shit in the ingredients, but F it…a boy’s gotta get some flavor.

Also, props to Ryan for telling me about spinach omelets. Those have been hitting the spot at night.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming…
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 10:43 am

Shamike!
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 10:45 am

Joey, can you make a recipe blog for those of us who are recipe retards? That would be ggreeeeattt.
Maddy on March 26th, 2009 10:49 am

Or ShamWHOA
Maddy on March 26th, 2009 10:50 am

I made a deeelish chinese dish that’ll go good on the recipe blog
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 10:50 am

Yes, Joey, and maybe have a link to Shape Magazine, the Atlanta Junior League, and Martha Stewart?? Jesus, what would G.A. think??

FJ, no free Shammurphy for you.
Scott on March 26th, 2009 10:56 am

Joe, what else in this omlet, just egg and spinach (is it fresh or frozen)?

little known fact: The Ryno is a damn good cook.
Joey on March 26th, 2009 11:01 am

I sauteed (man I hope I spelled that right or JV might use it against me in 2 months…) the spinach (fresh) with olive oil and garlic (was going to add some finely chopped onions, but ran out) until it was good. Then I just added three eggs. Little salt and pepper and that’s all.
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 11:11 am

Mmmm sounds good. “Until it’s good”–? Until it’s good and what?…flimsy? I apologize, the extent of my cooking abilities is pancakes and spahgetti.
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 11:22 am

Jess…. my mango smoothie concoction is my new favorite yumminess… Frozen mangos, light coconut milk, almond butter, and vanilla protein powder. I didn’t even think about adding “spirits” to it… but thanks for the idea. This could get me in trouble. I overslept because I was playing soccer until 12:15 last night.

AK – your “I heart Jon and Kate plus 8″ t-shirt arrived in the mail today… I’ll bring them tonight. I know you want to have that to wear out on Friday night.
Joey on March 26th, 2009 11:23 am

Couldn’t think of a better phrase. I sautee onions until translucent…spinach until it shrinks and looks cooked. shrug…
Joey on March 26th, 2009 11:23 am

Where did you buy the frozen mangos? That sounds pretty good.
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 11:26 am

Mike.. you should also think about making some sort of purple spandexy short things out of shammike…. or board shorts??
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 11:27 am

Joey – Frozen mangos were at trader joes…. I’ve attempted many frozen yumminesses.. but this by far is the best.
Ryan on March 26th, 2009 11:36 am

Wassup homies. Who is sprinting in the rain today?
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 11:36 am

Trader Joe’s is the shizznit. This may sounds snobby but I have upgraded from the two buck chuck to the $5 Costal Cabernet. I did a blind taste test one night with the Two Buck Chuck, the Costal Cab, and the Reserve Cab (stretching the wallet for a $10 bottle) and there wasn’t much difference between the Costal and the Reserve but you could blatantly tell which was the Charles Shaw blend. Hrrmpph.
Dan on March 26th, 2009 11:41 am

Whitney- What is “Hrrmpph”?
That’s the sound Jenn makes when she passes gas.
Dan on March 26th, 2009 11:42 am

Jenny V- If one were the to stop by the war room do we have to drop your name? tell them i’m there for the gang bang? BOX Party?
Joey on March 26th, 2009 11:49 am

Rest day, Ryan…rest day.

On another note, I’m taking the stairs every 2-3 hours in my office to build up the ole quad muscles. Seems like the best rehab program I could devise outside of my wall sits yesterday. Doesn’t put full tension on my knee like a full squat and is pretty pain free for the most part.
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 11:51 am

Dan… for the 100th time… I do not pass gas or burp. I think you are confusing me with Jenny V.

Whit… Good work on comparing the cheap wines! I’m really into scientific studies. I am doing one on wine vs wine plus advil for CFPT pain.
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 11:53 am

Next study (after this POS WOD) will be wine vs wine plus percocet…
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 11:57 am

Hahaha thanks. My boyfriend was in a car accident over Xmas and broke a couple ribs, so they gave him Vallium. He decided to participate in the wine study with me. I’ll tell you, his results were far more interesting and hilarious than mine were…
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 11:58 am

Ha Dan, for your information that is what I put when I sigh sitting at my desk.
Jenny V on March 26th, 2009 12:00 pm

I did sprint in the rain this AM and it sucked.

Joey, I think you spelled sauteed correctly, but I trust you enough not to check!

Dan, you just say you are there for my bday party. Pretty sure BOX will get you in, as well. Try to get there pre-10pm. We can stay all night, but trying to get people in before 10.

Jenn Mc – I have no choice but to be proud my amazing auditory abilities. Very few people can shake walls without moving.
Jenny V on March 26th, 2009 12:02 pm

And yes, we made Ray youtube “I’m on a boat” with T-Pain (sp?)… and then told him to imagine the skanks on a yacht with 25 guys who hadn’t seen it screaming “F*ck trees, I climb boueys MFer!” or, my personal fave “I effed a MERMAID!!!!” or the fall back “I’ve got a nautical themed pashmina afghan”.

I recommend this particular youtube videos for those in need of a laugh…every time you watch, it gets better. I choose you —- and—- T-Pain!
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 12:04 pm

I love the beginning…when they are just showing the 2 friends…”I’ll take you, andddd….T-Pain”
Jenny V on March 26th, 2009 12:04 pm

And yes, Jess, I saw your goat out there roaming around Bahhhhhhing at me this morning. At 6. He asked me where you were, I told him I tried to lure you by keeping your pillow and camera in my car, but to no avail.

And finally, a Snuggie is a Slanket ripoff and Slankets are AMAZING. I agree that their openness in the back does not work for the Shammike idea, though.
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 12:05 pm

Jenny V … you should definitely stick to what you are good at. You are the olympic wall shaker and I am the olympic sweat-er.

So if our weaknesses are goats. I think we should call our strengths ponies.

Speaking of goats… you owning a heard of them growing up explains to me now why you laugh -”Baaahahahaha” instead of “Hahahahahah”
Jenny V on March 26th, 2009 12:05 pm

I’m on a boat like Leo, if you’re on land, you ain’t me-o!

or the follow up to flippy floppies “You at Kinkos straight flippin copies”. I feel bad for the kid that didn’t get chosen, but I mean T-Pain or bff…easy choice!

See what happens when I am stuck in training for 3 hours? I go blog-tastic!
Jess A on March 26th, 2009 12:35 pm

Poor goat… roaming around in the rain alone… I’ll catch up with him later.
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 12:39 pm

Ray, can the t shirt guy do some shamdex shorts for me, printed with the OFFICIAL CROSSFIT GOAT BLANKET logo??
FJ on March 26th, 2009 12:46 pm

Sorry to correct you Jenny V.

Im the king of the world, on a boat like Leo. If you are on the shore, then you sho’ not me-oh.
Joey on March 26th, 2009 12:59 pm

Oh snap, let’s get some couples drama please. I need entertainment today if you cant already tell from my 800 posts about nothing.
Jenn Mc on March 26th, 2009 1:27 pm

Joey… forgot to tell you about one more ingredient in my mango yuminess … little bit of splenda (don’t tell bridget though)
Todd on March 26th, 2009 1:39 pm

Back from the sickness. I’ll do the sprints in the rain w/ you ryan. Wet and Sandy! Was thinkin of doin that and trying a scott special heavy metcon. 15-12-9 power clean and big boy box jump. Does that sound like something you might be interested in?
Joey on March 26th, 2009 1:47 pm

Power cleans dont exist, only squat cleans. I think that is a direct quote from Ray.

What’s the weight on the clean? 225? Hooyaah.
Skank Handler on March 26th, 2009 1:48 pm

No drama here. I was just impressed that someone rhymed shore with sho’.
Ryan on March 26th, 2009 1:51 pm

Todd – yes, but not today – my legs are wrecked from last 2 WOD’s – Heavy met-con is where its at though.
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 1:53 pm

hahaha who is skank handler?
Reagan on March 26th, 2009 1:55 pm

I like to refer to FJ as a skank WRANGLER, but he may also be the handler
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 2:00 pm

hahahaha thats great
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 2:16 pm

Easy there, Aquaman; you don’t come back in and do the 800 sprints followed by the deuce and a quarter squat cleans on the same day. Ok, I don’t, but go ahead, nice day for it.
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 2:49 pm

I meant dead lifts, not squat cleans, let’s move along…
Reagan on March 26th, 2009 3:03 pm

Most of you guys know I volunteer for Shepherd Center and we throw a huge field party on the day of the Kentucky Derby each year. The Derby is simulcast and there are betting games available…

$60 buys your bus ride to and from Buckhead, all the booze and BBQ you want, 2 bands (one is Money $hott, 80s/90s cover), a live and silent auction (I am the auction co-chair this year!). Goes from 1PM when buses start heading out there, until the last bus leaves the farm in Douglasville at 9/10 PM.

This is so fun and for a good cause… Ray donated a month of CFPT to my auction! Use my name as “JC Member who referred you” if you buy tix online! I am required to sell them Invite your friends!!!
Reagan on March 26th, 2009 3:05 pm

Oh and it is MAY 2nd this year
Jenny V on March 26th, 2009 3:34 pm

I was trying to do it from memory but I have freaking “Kiss Me Through The Phoooooone” in my brain so I can’t sing I’m on a Boat to myself.

FJ does wrangle and handle some skanks!!
Jenny V on March 26th, 2009 3:35 pm

Reagan, I’ll be there!!! I’ll support alcohol, I mean you and Junior Committee! Why wouldn’t I?!
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 3:40 pm

That is the weekend after Dirty South, isn’t it?? Maybe a CFPT field trip; they wouldn’t know what hit them…
Whitney on March 26th, 2009 3:46 pm

Ooo. I like that ShaMike. Let’s keep the party rollin..
Reagan on March 26th, 2009 3:48 pm

YES CF Field Trip!!! It really is a lot of fun… booze, sun, dancing, the auction has some GREAT things… trips, jewelry, BOOZE

And all for $60!!! Can’t beat it!
Jenny V on March 26th, 2009 3:54 pm

Again, guys…the girls pay to get THEMSELVES drunk and you get to take the prize(ish) home with you…but said prize will be blacked out and you can get rid of her without her finding out your last name so she can’t even stalk you on Facebook!

Meanwhile, if you are interested in this kind of debauchery twice in a row, don’t forget you can use the promo code JENNY to get $$$ off Steeple Chase tickets!
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 4:04 pm

Jenny, if you just cut and paste that last answer on the Kennedy family website, this thing will sell out today…Tell me there will be lots of women there that were born without vocal chords, and you may be on to something…
Ryan on March 26th, 2009 4:54 pm

Hahahah I totally gave a fake last name about 2 sunday mornings ago – Im ryan O’connor just FYI
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 5:06 pm

You are a cold hearted Rynoviking..
Jenny V on March 26th, 2009 5:06 pm

Good call Ryno!! A fake last name with an apostrophe in it…Clever yet simple.

You know homegirl is STILL stalking you on FB and searching for you, too! ha ha ha!
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 5:09 pm

And there is some poor Ryan O’Connor out there who got an email from her about the herpes thing…
Jenny V on March 26th, 2009 5:10 pm

Eh, I’m sure that slor has no idea where she picked it up and I guarantee she isn’t offering up the info!
Ryan on March 26th, 2009 5:12 pm

She was straight looney toons
Mike D., with your bad self running things on March 26th, 2009 5:28 pm

Before or after??
Maddy on March 26th, 2009 5:42 pm

Girls just give out the rejection hotline number. Get it over with quick and painless
