 RUN 986 SUNDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1997
VENUE: N.E. CORNER OF MEYER PARK CENTER (MEYER PARK & MEYER FOREST) HARES:
“C.I.A.”, “HEARTACHE”, “LOW LIFE” & “THE WORM THAT
TURNS”
Pre-Lewd
First, the only two good points of these two hash trails were:
Prompt starting time – 3:05 p.m.
Christmas Ale – furnished by “Altered Boy” and
“I Scream”
Trails
Where did the trails go? This week’s scribe, “Lorna
Dunes”, did the walkers’ trail.
She is reporting what some of the pack told her after the run.
It apparently went something like this: The pack went north from the start to the Willow
Waterhole Bayou and under the 610 Loop. “Dickhead”, ranging as always, ventured
south, west and north and started the trails again. He lost trail before it crossed Braes
Bayou. He wasn’t the only one who couldn’t find flour. The pack had trouble
finding flour at Stella Link. “Saran Crap”, “Catamite” and the pack
headed north to Braeswood with no success. “Rollerballs” saved the pack
with his scouting to the south. The trails went by “Lube Job” and “Ball
Grabber’s” house. If “Lube Job” had known that he was going to have to
run two trails, he would have ended this hash at his house.
The beer/water check was at 610 and Main. The trails headed
south through the old oilfield where the hash has been too many times before. There were
several very long false trails and some unsolvable 360-degree checks. “C.I.A.”
and “The Worm That Turns” went out to shorten the trails by 20 minutes by
telling the pack to go down the railroad tracks to the On Home under the Main Street
overpass at Holmes Road.
One final word on the walkers: “Altered Boy” said it
well, “If you really want to screw up the walkers, just give them a map to
follow”.
On On
“Bumper Humper” and “Bildo-Dildo” shortcut
the trails and got in before “Geek”, whose shortcut turned out to be one hour
and 30 minutes. “Dickhead” gave up running at some point and auto-hashed to the
On Home in one hour and 45 minutes. The real FRBs, “Strip Me” and “Half
Moon”, came in to the On Home in two hours. Those hashers who had the misfoutune to
miss the hares sweeping on trail had to run the additional 20 minutes and didn’t come
in until well after two hours. “The Worm That Turns” rescued
“Shuttlecock” at the beer/water check. The pack ate while waiting for
“Finger Fuck”, “Tonka Fuck” and others to appear, and they finally did
in just under three hours. Ryan Barrett, son of newly named “Prickly Dick”
(Corey Barrett) finally made it in at three hours.
Down Downs
“Tonka Fuck” did her first duty as R.A. since
receiving the appointment. She did a fine job. She’s learning about hats in the
circle, and about not leaving the circle unattended with the beer unguarded. The hares did
many down-downs for their trails and accusations toward each other. Down-downs were given
to new boots Ryan Barrett and Rose Siudut, visitors “Boss” from Norfolk H3,
“Catamite”, from Atlanta H4 and “Strip Me” from Fort Worth H3, and
eight reboots (some haven’t been out for weeks and just wanted more beer).
“Geek” had to drink because he thought that “The Worm’s” daughter
was actually his wife. Corey Barrett’s new Hash name, “Prickly Dick”
(originally bestowed on him at this month’s Full Moon Hash), was officially blessed
and accepted. The name came from his shaving routine. If you weren’t there to hear
the story first hand, don’t ask.

The On On On was at Chez Lounge, along Main, south of 610. Too
many beers. On On “Lorna
