HVH3 #101 Hash Trash
Okay Wanker kiddies, todays lesson is drinking in public - Or how to get away with it these days in Amherst. by I.P.Dailey
HVH3 Hash #:101
Where: The Harp, Amherst
When: Thursday, August 26, 2004
Hare: Canis Lickus
Pack: Comes on Vacation, Anti-Coch, Just Scott, Just Drew, hash Hounds
The Hare, Cainus Lickus, just couldn't let a dead dog lie, or whatever that old saying is, so he again resurrected that old trail of his and we all met at The Harp in North Amherst for a Hash.
Dewey Do Me! & I went to The Harp early and had their infamous Lobster special with Mussels appetizer and some delicious brews to quaff. Inside we met Just Scott ( BTW how many hashes has he made? Isn't he due a naming soon? ), and soon after we were joined by the hare, COV and new cummer Just Drew.
Just Drew is a transplant to Western Mass from an Orlando Hash. I should also mention COV brought the Mighty Hash Hounds out for the evenings festivities.
We circled up for the hare's axed for ten minute cranium start. Trail then proseeded south on Sunderland Road then at a check followed the Mill Stream under a bridge under Rte 63 thence easterly thru Mill Stream Park. Trail then crossed Mill Stream and followed the opposite bank as it delved into the myriad of trails that swarm all over the backside of the park. Trail then emerged below Puffers Pond.
From there the trail ran easterly and then hooked left at that intersection then along the eastern edge of Puffers Pond. Trail then ran uphill along the feeder stream into the pond. At this point I started to "Zen" to the beer check. I got to the BN just ahead ( Who said Head?) of COV. BN was on a rock in the middle of the stream, but we were baffled by the ingeniously hidden cache of brews. The hare had said that the beercheck would be very close to the BN but it was hidden under a midden of leaves and sticks. ( Plus the Molson bag was perfect camoflage for the fading light and conditions.) Just Scott sniffed out the bag and the circle was complete. Dogfish Ale and the Pack was merry. We were then met by the hare who announced that safety cautioned the end of trail running due to fading illumination.
We ran, jogged, walked back to the second Beercheck at the little parking lot SW of Puffers Pond. Along the way, COV accosted three joggers and did some recruiting.
Circle was conducted at the second Beercheck. This was COV's first official solo circle as HVH3 RA. First in the circle was the Hare, we sang him a song and he did his DD. Trail was mostly rated a 5.8 for lack of illumination, shiggy, bimbos, whiskey, and some other stuff. Oh yeah and because it was a recycled trail.
I can't remember if there were any accusations. Hash shit nominations were: Cainus nominated COV for something, then COV nominated Cainus for something, which I seconded and the Eyes had it so CL got the proud possession of the hash shit and now that monkey is off my back.
Just Drew got a newcummers DD and his favorite barnyard animal is a goat, under further questionning it was determined that he prefers Alpine goats over Nubians. ( But does he Yodel?)
Next Hash will be Thursday, Sept. 9 in Shutesbury. Hare: COV. She said vicinity of Pratt Corner Road, but more specific directions will be posted.
For the record( Cause that's what the scribe does, keep track of shit.) Just Courtney e-mailed that she thought she could make this past hash and on learning that shed have to do a backsliders DD, She replied that, " She'd proudly swallow" . That backsliders list grows with the absence of Cajonas, Hand Job, Mr. Hankey, Col. Mustard, and Just Arne ( Who we are not sure is even still in the AO.)
PPS, Saturday is FMT's trail outside of Hartford. I'll be going down about 12:30 and returning by 5p.m. if anyone wants to do the Hardfart 100th.
Yo' mos' humble Scribble,
