MOLESKIN:
Mainly just grumbling about being in a parking deck with the great weather. YHC will take the encouraging all PG rated feedback he received and ensure the next Teasip Q will take place in gorgeous outdoors (though it will probably be raining). The PAX did get to enjoy the weather at coffeteria where Icebox and AlrightAlright made a burpee bet based on the SMU-Michigan game.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
September 24-29 will be a Ryder Cup competition between team Oatmeal and team Special Sauce (names subject to change). Will be attendance based so make your appeals now to the captains if you want to be selected. Next happy hour is October 12

Mumblechatter was a 5/10 today, apparently Wake Forest has a football team and they played a game yesterday early because of the hurricane.

Teasip appropriately picked the theme that we were rocking out to Ice Cube’s greatest hits. The reason for the set list is that Ice Boxes make ice cubes and Bri and I are expecting our ice cube in March! Looking forward to rocking a dad bod and carrying a baby/puppy combo ruk sack soon.

Happy hour tonight, beat down tomorrow!
