Lets Kick The Crap out of 2017!

Arrived at Bobby's: Sat, Dec 31, 2016 @7:35 AM.
#SecureThePorch: Accomplished - The porch was secured by Coach Tom who slipped in the door a minute before I did. The enthusiasm for what the new year may bring is upon us.

The New Year is here and for the Breakfast Club, that means it is time to dream about the glorious past and the endless opportunities of the future. There was the winning shot in the high school championship basketball game, the touchdown scored against the cross-town rival in the annual Thanksgiving Day game and the come from behind victory in the final wrestling match of an illustrious career all to ear-shattering applause by fandom. Of course, none of these things ever actually happened but the Breakfast Club never lets the facts get in the way of a good story. Well, that's enough reflection for now and it's never good to dwell on the past anyway. It's time to dream of the endless opportunities of the future....and dream of losing weight.

All portly members of the Breakfast Club have banded together and have come up with a plan to lose weight. The official weight loss program of the Breakfast Club is called the BKWRP - i.e. the Breakfast Club Weight Reduction Program. The program commenced on Sat, Dec 31 and will extend for 10 weeks terminating on Sat Mar 11, 2017. A Weight Watchers endorsed digital scale will be provided by Rick on the 1st, 4th, 8th, and final week to record progress. All beauty contestants were weighed in with the following stipulations:

Normal casual attire is to be worn
All pockets shall be empty
No footwear or jewelry are allowed
Only a tee-shirt to be worn above the waist

To make the prospect of losing weight more attractive, a $20 entry fee will be charged to all participating members in the BKWRP. The person who loses the most weight, as a percentage of their starting weight, will receive all  BKWRP fees collected.

It should be noted that an anonymous BKWRP participant has suggested additional financial incentives ensuring a successful weight loss program such as charging a fee for not reaching a particular threshold. We can make this suggestion final on Saturday at the BK Club. However, what this tells me is the anonymous participant is feeling good about having a Bacon Cheese Burger without the bun. It is going to take a lot more than that to win this epic contest. Bring it on!!!

Due to concern over identification of overweight Breakfast Club members, anonymity has been requested to protect all plus-size contestants. So, going forward, all contestants shall be referred to as BC-1, BC-2, etc., with BC standing for Beauty Contestant.

Although there appears to be some question over who came up with the name 'BKWRP - Breakfast Club Weight Reduction Program', I have it in my head that it was Kim R. How it got in my head, I have no idea. But that doesn't matter. As the saying goes, "Don't let the facts get in the way of a good story". So, Kim, I thank you. To think that we were going to call it the 'WLC - Weight Loss Contest'... how pedestrian!!!

Mike H. - Happy Birthday! This is the 3rd week in a row you are receiving birthday wishes. Whew! Will it ever end? By the way, who is that creepy guy sitting to your left? I was only a few seats away and I don't recognize him.

College Football Bowl Update - Ryan H. continues to dominate with the Rick & the Widdoss boys in close contention. Although I am no longer 'in the conversation' for winning, I do hope that a BK member or family member wins.

Go Trojans!!! Beat that state school from Pennsylvania with the arrogant, delusional and stupid fan base.
