Today's question is: If the co-hares for the Edworthy Park hash were called The Two Lovebirds Plus One, to whom would it be referring:

1. Kawky and Krusty, plus Wet Wipe?
2. Kawky and his latest luxury car, plus Krusty?
3. Krusty and his truck, plus Kawky?
4. Krusty and Wet Wipe, plus Kawky's car?
5. Who knows?

It's hard to decide, although no-show Wet Wipe -- who decided not to appear until everyone was safely tucked away in the bar -- jumbled the equation just a bit.

Whatever the answer, hashers got to enjoy -- or is it endure -- a short route that included bushwhacking through Edworthy's narrow, single-track trails, no water crossings (yahoo), and beer and popsicles, aka the Breakfast of Champions, at a re-group. Early-evening storm clouds brewed to the west, but caused no problems. No one got lost or attacked by a coyote. And everyone made it safely to Eddie BoDeans Pub and Grill afterward, even Tiny Bubbles, who drives like a demented grandmother.

Back at the bar, mirth and joy ensued, including:

• Sticky Lips, aka Ms. Crown Drug Prosecutor, getting the Hash Thingy for holding Whale Wanker's pot ever since the Stampede hash nine days before.

  Was it a truckload? Was it brought across the border? Was it just for personal use? Sticky's lips were sealed, which sent more tongues to wagging. Inquiring minds and all that. The deal was consummated outside her SUV in an obscure corner of the parking lot. Oh, not that kind of pot, that's different. Never mind.

• Xena celebrated her 29th birthday again, and again, and again, and again. Dr. Fill, ever the gentleman, provided a humongous cake, whose candles caused four Calgary Fire Department trucks to respond to the scene.

  No worries, guys, it's just Xena's birthday. Hottie secretly hoped that all those hot firefighters show up for her next one.

• Noted fashion maven, or is it sock fetishist, Easy Drunk showed off her latest -- bright yellow SpongeBob socks. Unlike the cow ones and the red-and-white striped monstrosities, the SpongeBobs were't knee high or almost knee high. No, they were slightly tasteful creations that came just above her shoes.

  When Easy D said she was going to be gone for two weeks, it set off a wild rumour that she was leaving for Paris or Milan or some other fall fashion mecca. But, no, the fashionista was just visiting her old stomping grounds in Winnipeg -- which, no doubt, will give her more chances to find additional offensive socks.

• RA icon Rubber Made made Wet One drink for possibly upstaging her recently with her humour as guest RA when Ms. Made was gone. But Ms. Made heatedly denied there was a rift between the two, or that it was at all related to the recent Rosie O'Donnell vs. Star Jones TV catfight.
• Duke of Hurl, ever the hash punching bag, managed to get stuck with two down-downs -- one for puckering his butt while sliding down a gravel hill and the other for actually becoming a full-fledged Canadian resident.

  The latter wasn't without its moments, including getting threatened with a $500 fine by a US border patrol agent and part-time McDonald's employee for not notifying them 72 hours in advance that he was going to bring his car across the border. But Mr. Homeland Security Death Stare, being the swell guy he is, decided to let Duke slide -- and Duke scampered back to the Canadian side as quickly as possible.

• New hasher G-string, who was only doing her second run, worked her way into Rubber Made's cold, cold heart when she saw a dead duck along the trail and wanted to throw it into the back of Krusty's truck. Be wary of G-string, very wary, she could be an Evil Woman -- or possibly not.

On On!
Duke of Hurl
