40 Days Update – Sleep is useless

I used to run with a crowd of people that would say you can sleep when your dead. Last night I think I found the long lost relatives of that group. MS students have more energy than Chuck Norris and were non stop all night. I expected a few of them to drop of in the wee hours of our overnight-er, but no. They all went the distance. It was a blast and I had a great time hanging out with our students as they shredded up Slapshots. We had some new kids connect in and we all built some better relationships. I am a little tired and not even sure I am awake right now, but if I keep sleeping I’ll leave an indention in my mattress.

SLEEP IS USELESS!!!!! (Except for guys who are 30 and out of shape and have no business trying to be in Middle School again.)

More Flags More Fun

Yesterday 40 of us went to 6 Flags and had a blast. Goliath is the best ride in the park and I must say it is way better in the front seats. We rode it a couple of times yesterday and the front is the best. John Knud rode Superman with me and he could be Superman, he loves that junk.

It was great to see our students just having fun and hanging out together. We have an awesome group of students and they were responsible and did everything I asked them to do. So don’t miss anything else we have going this summer because we are half way through our 40 Days.

10 Reasons Paintball is for Men

1. You get shot – any game that involves voluntarily getting shot at is a man game

2. The world is your urinal – no explanation needed

3. We don’t know the meaning of the word surrender…or that the statement is completed “or die”

4. Trask talking is essential – even if you get lit up like a Christmas tree

5. You have to take off clothes to reveal battle wounds

6. Paint balls don’t always break – ouch

7. Field speed of the guns is set to 290 FPS – dude that leaves a mark

8. Bright colored clothing makes you a target – most men do not own bright colored clothing

9. Rules are essential only for the purpose of taunting the other team. Outside of that they are of no use.

10. Crotch, head, face and chest shots are no fun if you are shooting a girl which takes all of the joy out of paintball

We took 32 guys out today to Paintball Atl and it was great. We had a blast and I got shot four times by Jacob Westbrook, man that kid hates my guts. My favorite was as I was exiting from the last game after being shot in the head, I took a face shot from a student who certainly knew I was out and yes I know who you are and I know where you sleep. Be very afraid.
