Next CFO Social Gathering: The Ramp!

It's time for another CFO social outing! This time we're choosing The Ramp. It comes highly recommended by fellow CFO athlete and salsa dancer extraordinaire Melissa A.
We're planning on heading over there around 5pm this coming Saturday, June 7.
This will be the perfect opportunity for you to hang out with a bunch of other CFOers, have some good food and drink, and even dance if you get the urge.
We'll be meeting at 5pm at CFO so that we can carpool over. If you'd like to skip the carpool, just meet us there at 5:30pm.
Post to comments if you're down for some food, drink, and dancing. I've even heard that Nicole is going to lead us through some tequila shot & burpee supersets!

Sounds like a fun time! I am down and should be able to drag Daniel along:) I can't wait to see everyone again. NYC was fun but there's no place like home.

Are you guys trying to tell me something? You always pick dates when I am not around. If you don't want to be friends, just tell me...

Thanks for that article, Michael. I'm going to start bringing chocolate milk to the gym :)
(The article also helped me make the decision to postpone the Hero workout until my body recovers a bit more.)

Happy Birthday, Tami, you beautiful beast!!
JP, Sierra, Lance, et al...don't you know by now that you're supposed to reserve all weekends for cult events?? This will have to be weather-permitting anyway, since The Ramp can be kind of cold if it isn't sunny.
FYI - if you get to The Ramp after 4pm, there is a $10 cover (the live music starts at around 5pm).

happy birthday tami!!!

Happy Birthday, Tamara! Thanks for setting the bar so ridiculously high! I hope you have a wonderful year.
Melissa - you have my word, from now on weekends are reserved for CFO-related events. For reals, the cult rules.
BTW, I tried to sign up for the games but could only get in as a spectator and had to pay 20$ for the privilege. Just a heads-up to my fellow CFer's who plan to be groupies/fans for the weekend.

Audra, you have done enough for me today. I have been dodging insults and punches all morning thanks to you!!!
Posted by: Tamara at June 2, 2008 2:39 PM
we even have to pay to spectate? dang.

Feliz cumpleaƱos, Tami.
> hijack! speaking of performance enhancing drugs, check this out.
She's pretty buff, but we can't say for sure if she's juicing, as Nabil so eloquently put it a day or two ago. I just prefer to think of puppies and flowers.

Happy birthday Tami, we all love you.. Hope you get a ripper tonight.
Posted by: Lau at June 2, 2008 4:39 PM
they must have either a. photoshopped or b. caught it at just the right moment... because she definitely does not look that muscular, was a good game.

Tamara - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Posted by: brad gilliatt at June 2, 2008 6:27 PM
Happy Birthday Tamara! as a birthday gift, I'll give you a free guitar lesson. how's that?
Posted by: Jonathan at June 2, 2008 6:56 PM
b. just the right moment
That "moment" being the one after a lifetime of steriod abuse!
She's Russian, she's a professional athlete, and she's yoked! The Juice-O-Meter is giving me a very high reading, indicating the presence of performance enhancing substances!! If you don't think that's a reliable source just ask the Magic 8 Ball.
Either way its no big deal b/c according to Coach almost all pro athletes are on roids so who cares.

After reading coaches post I am packing a bag to road trip to a Mexican pharmacy. I love how quick David was back peddling after coach called him out. Spineless! Coach is a demi-god and Brandon wants to have his baby
Posted by: Lau at June 2, 2008 9:05 PM
we gotta go see that steroid movie.

This is just one more reason why Nabil should be nominated for commenter of the year.
