The Xmas Wings Run
RUN #773 - December 22, 1997
Dickons pub
- Somewhere far south
I pulled up to the bar at about 7:10, (7:00 hash time), the group was already circled and introducing
themselves. I jumped into the circle and waited my turn. There were two visitors, DICK
HEAD, and RUNNING BARE ASS. The announcements were made, and the hares were
called forth. We were then informed that the ON IN was to be at a different bar, Dickons Pub
didn't want our business. LAP DOG and DREARY, described the marks, without visuals, and
pointed to the first on mark. I overheard the visitors were not sure of the marks, so I explained
quickly, while running, I don't know how much they got or understood. We didn't loose them
though. We were off and across the busy road, waiting for the lights, then around Midnapore,
there were lots of long check backs, and the hares said we had found every one of them.
KAPTAIN VON KRAP was overheard to have a stiff leg, (which one?). We knew that there
were two carol stops, (we never found Carol). The first stop, there was Root Beer Schnaps, to
wet our whistle, and a great song re-worded by DREARY. It was all about POLE VAULT,
and I can not remember a word. Then we were off again, through the neighbourhood, and all the
checkbacks were found by me again. S.Q. was seen doing snow angels on the median, that
proves she is a true angel. I gave up and started to walk with the wonderful HARE OF THE
DOG . We were the last to the second carol stop, they had already sang the first song, and drank
all of the Butterripple Schnaps. The second carol had the clew to the ending of the run. The ON -
IN was straight back. All in all, the run was very good, not as cold as last year on wing night, and
a few more people. The group then got to their cars and drove to the ON IN.
AT THE ON IN
I overheard that the dashing and distinguished 007 was true to his reputation, he gave to
Hasheretts the ride of their lives back to the starting point.
KRUSTY, trying not to be outdone, donned his suit jacket, just because he had one with him.
(Secret identity?)
DOWN DOWNS
- DREARY, LAP DOG, for being hares for the evening, drinks at carol stops, carol stops, and
the flour markings in the snow.
- Visitors, RUNNING BARE ASS, AND DICK HEAD, from Legos (? I don't know)
- KAPTAIN VON KRAPP for modifying the Hash Shit, SKEWBIC HAIR, had him do if
for him, as he doesn't have the tool.
- SKEWBIC HAIR was whining about the screw in his loose screw during the run, and his loose
nut.
- S.Q. for the snow angels. and good ones they were was the comment.
- DIRTY DANCER, for watching for slow and fast cars and busses, but not pedestrians and
fellow hashers. Also dressed like the black hole. We had to sing KNOBBY'S favourite song,
Azumba Zumba Zay.
- PERFESSOR, non appropriate fashion, the R____ shirt, put second shirt on, then took it off,
then took of first shirt, the turned inside out, then covered up. (Absent minded Perfessor.)
- 007, for bashing without hashing. LUMBERJACK, JANE, AND BEV, also for bashing
and not hashing.
- DREARY, special recognition, (more than he deserves?) Contribution of Christmas Carols,
(still didn't find Carol, must be on 3rd ave)
- DEAD DUCK was called up, last week she was lost somewhere in Eauclair Market, she went in
one door, and when she came out the other side, there was no one around. She decided that since
she didn't know where the bar was, she would walk home. We renamed her HOME ALONE.
- NOT TO DEEP. for being afraid of going down to many times, ( on the ice) Sexual Life of a
Camel.
- 007 again for giving rides to $16.00 BUCKS A NIGHT U.S., and BEAVER FLATS.
he received the Hash Shit, and also a large bib to cover his suit jacket.
THANK YOU DREARY AND LAP DOG, A GREAT RUN.
PISS OFF.
