AUH4 Run Number 1561 – Monday 26th May 2008


The Up-n-Down the Underpasses Run


 


 


The Event:


 


The Hashers met in familiar territory along the corniche this week. Summer is definitely creeping its way in and the Hashers felt it while running along the corniche and up and down and up and down the pedestrian underpasses (did I mention we all went up and down the pedestrian underpasses?). But, we must not have looked too miserable because one intrepid young woman, who was enjoying an afternoon latte at Mugg-n-Bean, spotted several Hashers running through the Spinney’s parking lot and decided she just had to be part of that group and ended up following us back to the parking lot where we began the night. Ooz Ee thought he had pulled, but unfortunately she didn’t leave her number and to make matters worse, she went back to Mugg-n-Bean to get her significant other…


 


The On-back was held at Ooz Ee and Pashmina’s and they provided an excellent spread of Lebanese favorites.



 


To save us all a headache…if you’ve only opened Footprints for directions to next Monday’s Hash, as per every week, they’re AT THE BLOODY BACK





 


 


Run Verdict


 



  • Too Humid!

  • Where’s all the sand?!

  • 50 minute sprint!

  • Itchy Dick disliked it so much he just pissed off!

 


 


GM – Big Ears


 


Hares/Caterers/Hosts


 


Maurice and Maurice were the Hares, with not a hair between ‘em! , Pashmina and French Fries hosted and provided plenty of space and yummy grub!


 


Virgins


Vanessa, who joined us for the on-back, is from Germany and she’s in procurement. She’ll be here for two years and she will be back – when? Monday!


John also joined us in time for the on-back. John is from Boston and is in expediting. He’ll also be here two years and will be back!


Ed joins us from Brisbane and he’s an environmentalist (wot?!?) He’s a lifer and he’ll be back!


 


Hash Numbers


Dirt Track Cowboy earned his 25 runs shirt. However, we had no shirts and since that was his last AUH4 hash, we promised to mail a shirt to him. Yeah…that’s it…we’ll mail it…


 


Leavers


It is with a heavy heart that we say good bye to our friends Dirt Track Cowboy and Angry Pussy – it’s been fun and we will all miss you! All Hashers are reminded to keep an eye on the Cameroon soccer team…DTC will be “coaching!”

RA – Perthy Throw Up


Back to atrocious singing…and RA made the following charges:


 


General Sins


Jennifer, Big Ears, Bloody Nips, Sheila and Chris were all called in for representing various locations with the following sins:


India for not allowing Muslims to buy health insurance because gambling is forbidden in the Quran.


Philippines for having to apologize on behalf of doctors and other staff at Vicente Sotto Med Center because they videoed the surgery of a man who had a perfume bottle up his bum. The video ended up on You Tube!


San Diego for allowing a City Council candidate to remain in the race even though he was spotted by two witnesses in his car masturbating into a cup.


Simon and Sports Bra for a Girl were called in for having a sleep over and one of them was heard to say “Thank you for the sleepover, I’ll give you a nice fry up in the morning.” And they were then seen together having brekky at The Club.


Ed and Kangaroo Keg were called in for being Australian because it was discovered that UK and US divers were left behind in the water during a dive. The problem was that the Aussies went back and found the divers!


 


Sins from the Run


Bloody Late Arriving Bastard: Richard


 


Child Abuse


Nibbly Bits was brought in (again) for abandoning Olivia, so Never Never took a short cut and they came back early.


Fairy Lights was brought in for sitting on the concrete and hiding “toys” from the children.


 


Pashmina, Jan, Bagbum and Perthy were called in for gossiping.


Simon was called in for several things: not calling On on, whingeing, and running past his house twice and not stopping in – except that we discovered that was a different Simon. Oh well. Since Simon was already in, Simon did the down down.


 


Sex on the Hash


Pashmina, Ooz Ee, Vanessa and John for the love rectangle that came about when Vanessa came running after Ooz Ee looking to join our group.  


Goldilocks for baptizing Gearhart.


Jennifer for being part of the following conversation: “Where did you get him from?” Jennifer responds: “He was the most forward, I thought of getting two.” “How did you pick him?” Jennifer responds: “He jumped on me!” I’ll let you decide what or whom she was talking about.


 


Birthdays


Jennifer, Dune Basher and Thunder Down Under (who was standing in for Danni)


Happy Birthday F@ck You!


 


Naming


Chris was brought in at the beginning of the evening after it was discovered that he has been Hashing for many, many years but has never been given a name. Along with Hashing, his hobbies include bushwalking, and skiing. He’s a bit of a Nomad, having lived all over the world. He’s married to Theresa, and Chris is often seen pushing their son in his little three wheeler stroller. Based on all this information, the following names were suggested: Three Wheeled Wonder, Bushwanker, Bushwackeroffer, Bushdriller, Tripod, 3 Wheels/3 Islands, and simply 3. The winner is: Bushwackeroffer! On on!




Charges from the Floor


Swing charged RA and all Yanks with the duty of remembering Memorial Day and those who are fighting for our rights and for those who have fallen while doing so.


 


The Grub


 


Pashmina and French Fries provided an excellent spread of Lebanese yummies! Thank you for hosting!

“Hashing is a state of mind- a friendship of kindred spirits joined together for the sole purpose of reliving their childhood or fraternity days, releasing the tensions of everyday life, and generally, acting a fool amongst others who will not judge you or measure you by anything more than your sense of humor."


Stray Dog (From the Global Trash Hash Bible complete reference for the Hash House Harriers)


 





 



And now for the Hash Crap…and it truly is crap (and this is my disclaimer: I don’t write this stuff….I don’t even source it…so if you don’t like it or find it offensive…I suggest you skip this part next time…):
