Hare: Bumming A Fag

Acting GM: Aims Low

Location: Knights Corner, Pickering

 

Bumming set a challenging trail through the streets and the wilds of south Pickering. When we finally pried the pint glass from Bumming’s hand at the Knights Corner we were able to form a circle and get started. Aims Low led the group as acting GM and let us loose in search of trail, which after considerable effort was finally discovered.

 

The hashers dashed across the overpass and ventured south of Highway 401, along some train tracks, into an industrial area, and then plunged down into a glen. The first encounter for the FRBs involved three white-tailed deer, but they all got away unmolested. Running through the woods and valleys was a bit slippy as there was still plenty of snow that had not yet melted. Along the way we met a young lad who had seen a person laying trail earlier that day, and he pointed us in the right direction – very helpful and he spoke well for someone from the woods of Pickering so apparently they have schools now. Eventually we reached the shores of the great Lake Ontario and we lost any sign of marks – so we awaited the arrival of the hare. Bumming led us up an embankment and on to the beer check at his domicile (and Aims Low’s).

 

As if the trail hadn’t been long enough, Bumming thrust us upon a convoluted trail back to the On In at the Knights Corner. Stuporman tried some shortcutting and ended up with a bloody nose and shredded pants after snagging his cape while attempting to soar over a very tall (?) fence. Luckily it was a cold day and the bleeding stopped quickly. Stuporman skipped the circle as he had prior commitments that were supposedly more important…

 

Aims Low ran the circle and presented a number of down-downs:

·         Bumming A Fag for being an ambitious and cruel hare;

·         Dead End for blasphemy as shed had the gall to criticize Durham’s sacred vessel;

·         Zig Zag for arriving late and missing much of the trail;

·         Shadow and Shampoo got Stuporman’s down-downs – they have similar hair lines and that’s good enough;

·         Cums On Demand, Just Jim and Shampoo for being Durham backsliders;

·         Just Jim twice more – for wearing a hat in the circle and for vacationing in Hawaii and not packing a dress (he meant to hash but was unequipped);

·         Johnny Cockring and Backdoor Buzz for dry lips;

·         Just Jim one more time to finish the down-down beer and for refusing to drink from the piggish vessel (he was almost named at this point, but that would have only given him what he wanted).
