With Hermie still on the IR with a bad back, I jumped in to help out and sub Q. Since I didn’t have a lot of time to get creative, I re-visited some of my old backblasts to get some ideas (and as Montross added, I had to go way back to find them). The Pyramid Scheme was a good one, and it did not disappoint once again. Only made a few modifications……..
