LAKESIDE HASH HOUSE HARIERS HASH TRASH
Run 900: October 31, 2001 Catani Gardens, St.Kilda
Hare: The Boomerang (& Committee) .
This week I have decided to go on the front-foot, vis-à-vis the global forces of world counter-terrorism. Last week, you will recall, we attempted to keep under their guard by sending out the Trash in Ancient Babylonian, a venture that in itself caused uproar and mayhem. While few in the Hash could decipher it, the cryptologists in what remains of the Pentagon where right onto it. And, for the first time ever in years of sending insulting and foul-mouthed messages, I immediately got the following on the email:

So keeping a local profile doesnt work then, stuff the forces of world anti-terrorism.
Here Poo. Cop that. Poe-wee-bugger-bum-tit! Get that up ya.
Right. As to Wednesday nights Halloween Run, a motley and underdressed collection of grizzled ghouls and drac Draculas assembled in the lee of a brisk evening southerly on the St.Kilda foreshore. They then ran round the streets chasing non-existent Hare, The Boomerang, who had attended as The Invisible Man. However, the pack only succeeded in frightening all the little kids who had come out for trick-or-treat back inside. Point Post scored the run a pass, noting that it blew a gale, had few false trails, and included lots of standing around. But Rugarse & Whinging Poms food scored high honours. The piece de resistance was a pudding in a pumpkin. Though Pointy gave it 95/ 102, in all truth this concoction was unclassifiable, tasting at once like a nutty, savoury, sweet, sour, gingery liquor. It could slot into the menu anywhere between the aperitifs and the after-dinner mints.
Then an old bloke who appeared to be resident in the park bench we had requisitioned was produced and announced as Gerbils Dad, Golden Hamster. The Boomerang reviewed the Ballarat Balls-Up, and used the following words to describe it great, root, beer, cold, fun, spoons, dance but not necessarily in that order. Barterbitch accused GG of getting the horn for Highly Infectious at the Balls-Up; a charge which GG more or less put his hands up to. Cheesecake missed out on nookie at Ballarat so in consolation Lounge Lizard awarded her a magnificent phallus in Port Phillip. Visitors and Virgins included Elizabeth and Like a Virgin. Too Dumb To Die charged Like-a with having the cheek to claim that Boomer looks like Capn Darling in Blackadder. TDTD had apparently not washed nor changed since the Balls-Up, so Gerbils got him for green-nosing and wearing his balls on his head.
Shunt returned Major Fuck-Ups Shit-of-the Week award used, so E & B awarded it right back to him. Shunt was getting around dressed like a ghost, which he soon will be as far as Melbourne Men are concerned after Monday night (See # Run 901 below). This necessitated him pouring fluids through a very small hole in a sheet, with much resultant staining, bringing to mind certain Orthodox Jewish martial practices. IBM noted that was rather insensitive also to the Aboriginal community, as he had walked onto a dreaming site dressed as the KKK. IBM got charged for the weather by The Boomerang. IBM also charged Lipstick for dancing dreadfully. IMB, IBM .just a minute can you believe what he said to me this week?! IBM noted the extraordinary statistic that until my Babylonian Trash of last week, he had never attended Hash and not featured in the write-up. As you can imagine, I am devastated. I have been doing this for months now, and hadnt the faintest idea that I hadnt been leaving out IBM every week!
Janus has returned from Italy, having got The Italian Job from Deep Throat. DTs libido knows no bounds. According to our sources they had a triste in Trieste, a fling in Florence and nookie in Naples. DT was positively begging to do my bucks turn, reckoning that, well, if you want French, just give the lady French bubbly. It was all I could do to prevent her, through force of habit, from standing around on corners in Grey St during the run. She fair dinkum nearly hooked one poor bedraggled smack-ridden girl who ventured onto her patch.
Mummies charged Boomer as dressing as The Invisible Man, bringing to mind the story of the SuperHeroes Hash Balls-up, but whoops, weve run out of space
On on,
Mummies Boy
