Forge Philosophy 12-15-08

Mr. Meant-To has a comrad,

And his name is Didn’t-Do;

Have you ever chanced to meet them?

Did they ever call on you?


These two fellows live together

In the house of Never-Win,

And I’m told that it is haunted

By the ghost of Might-Have-Been.

~ Unknown

 

Today: 5 deadlift (275-185), 10 burpees, 5 rounds.  

 

watch the video and ask yourself:  which one am I…Private Pyle or Gunnery Sergeant Hartman?  Post your answer in comments….
