OK, so we need to bring you up to date on a few changes to the meeting we announced two days ago.

1. We've changed the meeting day and time to tomorrow evening (Wed 7/23/08) at 8pm.
2. Everyone who can come SHOULD COME to this meeting. This means everyone! Whether you have CF Games aspirations or not, there's gonna be something that's going down right at 8pm that you're not going to want to miss.
3. We're gonna end the 7pm class promptly at 7:50pm, so get there early if you're planning on taking the 7pm class.

See you all tomorrow night at 8pm sharp! The doors will be locked for a bit from 7:50pm to 8pm, so don't be alarmed when this happens.

So what do you think the secret is? Post your best guess to comments.

Oh, great...get me all hot and bothered about the big surprise, then make it the only night I can't be there. Someone please collect pictures, videos, or evidence as appropriate.

I'm not going to post my guess as to what it is, but I'll be it involves champagne.

Oh, great...get me all hot and bothered about the big surprise, then make it the only night I can't be there. Someone please collect pictures, videos, or evidence as appropriate.

I'm not going to post my guess as to what it is, but I'll bet it involves champagne.

I'm thinking it involves some sort of combination of:

Nabil, the motor to the roll-up door, and an empty bar

Nicole O is going to come out in Eva Perone regalia and sing 'don't cry for me _____ ' (fill in the blank here) and the new operatic CFO video will start rolling...

I'm guessing a performance by Nabil & Daniel, something like this.

Nabil has just taken youtube and the CFO forum to a new level! That video is priceless!

wow...i want to quit this hotshot gig and taken lessons in video editing from nabil...are you kidding me? seriously, how late did you stay up working on that?

my guess is coach.

or allycallie hahahah!!!

My guess: smooch-a-thon.

I fear that Nabil's post was removed. Nabil, if you read this, email me the link.

nabil, please email the link to me at sierrapi2000@yahoo.com. I need to see what all the fuss is about!

Nabil's video was actually from our last Malibu party.

I'll jump on the video request bandwagon: b_sull65 at hotmail.com.

FREE NABIL! FREE NABIL!

Nabil, nice work!

Did I mention that I love heavy metal this week? If not, I love heavy metal.

Here's my second guess:

Mike bought some fabulous venetian blinds in a very masculine shade of pink that he wants to install in the window facing the street. The blinds coupled with a throw rug that he picked up from the cats I frequently see at the corner of McArthur and Market really tie the room together. In fact, the rug may even promote the kind of Feng Shui harmony exuded by the rug in The Dude's apartment prior to that most unfortunate micturation incident.

I think Mike wants those 10 minutes to really set things up correctly and unveil his prized additions to the training floor to a wowed audience.

Tom, I forgot to say Happy Vanilla Ice Cream Day!
Also, it seemed as though Dawn dedicated today's alternate workout to you. Maybe because it's Vanilla Ice Cream Day, or maybe it was simply a happy accident.

The Dude! I love it! One of the best movies ever!

I think the surprise is a life sized, oil based painting of a shirt-less Coach engaged in an overhead squat.

Daniel, Great job w/ yesterdays workout.98% of the time I'm @ CFO I try to beat you, Mike, Nabil or Brandon. With days like you had yesterday, I realize I have a long way to go...Thanks for the push!

where's this vid at???

is the almighty "coach" coming to bless CFO to make it sacred grounds?

I know!

Sevan and crew will be filming another episode of the Ass-Whooping chronicles, in which he will of course get his most resounding whooping to date from one or more of the amazing CFO women.

> Tom, I forgot to say Happy Vanilla Ice Cream Day!

You aren't lying. It really is Vanilla Ice Cream Day today. How about that? Of course, every day is vanilla ice cream day for me. I endeavor to consume approximately a half gallon of Breyer's natural vanilla every 24 hours. It's that kind of regimented training and eating schedule that is going to bring me to heretofore undreamt-of levels of fitness.

Tom

You should just melt a gallon and keep it at your bedside... so when you wake up to go to the bathroom you can down it like a shake and stay anabolic all throughout the night.

Hmmm, the surprise: Don't mean to be a smartass, but maybe Headquarters has decided to back up the "affiliate cup" title by actually awarding us with a REAL CUP?!?!

Oh Melissa... why would presenting a "REAL CUP" have to involve closing the gym for 10 minutes and pushing everyone out for an unveiling? Clearly there is something far more exciting in the works. Some resort or spa of sorts with a crossfit facialist, masseuse and pedicurist at your service. Or better yet, miniature monkeys that hang from the rafters and cheer you on when you think you haven't anymore to give on a workout.

Use your imagination WOMAN!

>Use your imagination WOMAN!

Candace, I just totally heard you say that when I read it. Wierd. I hope we all get spa treatments. I so could use that. I have a wedding to attend, people, I need a massage!

Sierra, glad to hear you're still "ATTENDING" the wedding...I'm a lucky man!

Last time I fell for a pitch like this... it was Amway.

Dammit, James! You weren't supposed to let the cat out of the bag like that.

On second thought, I think Tom is partially right - I just remembered that I saw Mike in heated negotiations with the rug lady as I drove by the other day. At issue were six matching 4' by 6' rugs with huge lion's heads on them, I can only surmise that they will replace the particle board "platforms" which have served so honorably thus far, but whose time has come.

I think what Mike has in mind is upping the intensity level by providing an actual LION staring you in the face as you go for that max clean and jerk, stomping on his face when you land. Also, it will provide the many benefits of unstable surface training and more closely replicate the dusty, uneven dirt of Aromas (AKA the Crossfit Mecca). All the other affiliates who train on conventional platforms will be once again left in the dust, so to speak.

I think it's free massages from the ladies next door...

in other news, I dont know where my ride is that was supposed to pick me up an hour ago, but if I dont end up getting picked up any time soon Ill be there tonight.

There's a massage parlor next door? I thought it was a Thai restaurant! Next you are going to tell me that our neighbors on the other side are manufacturing paraphernalia to aid in the combustion and inhalation of controlled substances.
