Yah, ok, it wasn't a friday, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the run, but it is still a good title.
now, with apologies to whomever wrote that book about the hippopotamus...... (and apologies to the hash)
Zok and Og cavort in the bog, but not the hippopotamus.
(names
within names......only Peekaboo and Fuhkawee know the true identity
of these names....)
Clair and Peekaboo jump in the goo, but not the
hippopotamus.
A moose and a Goose together have juice, but not the hippopotamus.
(could this be a reference to our consumption of the amber nectar ?)
A cat and
two rats brought new running blats, but not the hippopotamus.
(blat - common
reference to poorly played brass instrument)
(ok, so it was dreary,
whalewanker, acd and me, it sounds better the way it is in the book
- although in the book it is hats....)
Now Zok and Og are out for a
jog,
with the hash band in hats with their new running blats,
while the
Baby and the PoleVault, and the blueballs and the
thongQ,
are doing their best to keep up with the rest.
And Peekaboo
and Fuhkawee completely lose the true trail.
(so, what else is new. I
don't think I've picked the right way since I started hashing !)
Then the animal
pack comes running on back,
saying HEY ! CUM JOIN THE LOTOFUS.
And we didn't
know, should we stay, should we go ?
But yes the Hippopotamus,
but not the
Armadillo.
(because she wasn't at the circle, and missed out that the onin was
at the museum, NOT Tom&Jerry's)
On a sadder note, $16/night did sustain some sort of serious injury, and may have a rigid assistance device next time we see her.
All in all, a great run.
too bad i don't remember much about it, or who was there.
(no, I didn't drink any beer! perhaps that was the problem)
Kudos to the staff at the museum for having Hash-Specials
(on smokies, chili, etc.).
