HASH TRASH - Run 666

HASH TRASH - RUN 666
That Ol' Devil Run
Place: Megiddo
Hare: Diablo (of course!), aided by Turn-Ho and Loose Caboose
 
Humble Scribe could not make Run 666 but received the following report from one who was there (a big thank-you to Deliverance!):  
 
"A cold, very windy day.  We were waiting at the Picasso parking lot for quite a while and our fears that no bus would come were becoming a reality when we noticed a lost looking bus and driver.  We all boarded the bus and we were driving off when Do-little noticed that Deliverance's car window was down. After madly scrambling to find her keys in four different bags and stopping traffic, she found the keys and rolled up the window and we were off! 
 
"We enjoyed Bloody Mary's and various salty snacks and watched an overly loud Monty Python video while riding on the bus. 
 
"After about an hour and one bad car wreck later, we turned into a clearing and the bus did a little off-roading in our vain attempt to find Har Megiddo.  We got back onto the highway and found the elusive mountain only to realize that it was a national park and no fires could be lit on the premises. So, somebody decided to go back to the clearing where we had off-roaded and set up there.  The Devil (Diablo) and his minions (Turn-ho and Loose Caboose) set off with much flour and a 10 minute head start to set the trail. 
 
"The rest of the Hashers circled up and were given many useless 666 facts* by none other than Fer Fox Sake, the King of Useless Trivia.  Off we went through hill and dell chasing the devil.  At first there was a lot of coverage provided by the forest but quickly the evil trail led through farming fields and flat land.  We turned into the only secluded spot in the area and had a half way circle.  There was also the discovery that the mouthpiece of the Hash Horn had been lost during the chase. 
 
"With a rousing rendition of 'Sympathy for the Devil', The Devil and his helpers continued their mission with absolutely no cover.  As we were nearing the finish we ran into carload of late Hashers that had come to join us.  After gleefully taking their money, we all stood and ate our barbecue.  No picnic tables.  We turned the luggage compartment into a buffet.
 
"More Monty Python, more drinks, more car crashes, traffic, a long bathroom stop and we were back in Herzliya."
 
* Boston Creamed adds: Couldn't get the list from FFS but here are a few found by searching Satan's playground, Google: 
666 has been studied extensively by mathematicians because of its many interesting properties. http://users.aol.com/s6sj7gt/mike666.htm

HASH TRASH - Run 665.5

THIS WEEK: RUN 666 MEETING POINT INFO...
RUN 666 BBQ INFO (BRING STUFF)...
RUN 666 T-SHIRT INFO...
JERUSALEM HASHER PARTY INFO...
THE NEXT QUIZ NIGHT...
SATAN REVEALS HIMSELF AS BIG PURPLE DINOSAUR !!!
SCROLL DOWN... DOWN... DOWN... DOWN...

HASH TRASH - RUN 665.5
Poop in Pituach
Place: Herzliya Pituach
Hare: Shock & Awe, aided by Doggie Style

Circle up did we Hashers by the dinosaur topiary of Herzliya Pituach, the origins of which are quite mysterious. Why topiary? Wherefore dinosaurs? How did they get the purple flowers to grow out of the eye sockets? Googling both in Hebrew and English has yielded nothing, but one thing is certain: these are the only animals in town not roaming free to deposit doo-doo wherever they like.

The run was excellently marked with plenty of long running stretches, and was perfectly timed so that walkers and runners met up almost simultaneously. The half-way point song was Barney ("Bowdler of the 20th century") the Purple Dinosaur's "I Love You, You Love Me", a song so sickly sweet that, as FFS pointed out, it practically begs for a Hash version. And so, here it is, courtesy of the Big-Hump Hash House Harriers of Saint Louis, Missouri. The first part, at least, follows the Barney song:

I LIKE BEER
I like beer
Can't you see?
When I drink I am happy!
Pale ale, dark lager
Tasty, foamy brew
I lift my cup and drink to you!

If we keep on drinkin' and drinkin'
If we keep on sucking it down
If the beer bitch pours like a river
Till we start to stumble around
If you're losing control of your bladder
And you hope that soon we'll be through
If you think that it's time for the circle to end
There's only one thing you can do-oo
Drink it down, down, down..

Which brings us neatly to the Down-downs. There were many returnees in the wake of holiday breaks and inclement weather; many people armed with light sabers, at least two people who will never ever complain about anything ever again, and one person who got a graphic lesson in grammar (or was it anatomy?) from Deliverance. Dawg!

HASH TRASH - Run 665

HASH TRASH - RUN 665 
Hashing Between the Raindrops
Place: Ramat HaHayal
Hare: Fer Fox Sake
 
Sometimes Hashers get lucky. In the midst of a rainy, overcast weekend, we managed to find the only 2-hour window respite from the storm. The rain began falling again literally as we returned to the circle.
 
But what happened in between? A good run through the Ramat HaHayal high tech park and around the surrounding neighborhood. For those who don't know, Ramat HaHayal / Kiryat Atidim are the Tel Aviv equivalent of the Herzliya Pituach Industrial Zone -- lots of high-tech companies, lots of geeky yuppies with cash to burn -- and exactly the same restaurants as in Herzliya, too.
 
Speaking of Herzliya Pituach, there's a photo of a street sign which is making the rounds on the Internet right now. It's from the construction pit that has puzzled many a law-abiding citizen trying to get back home from the industrial zone without driving over a curb or traffic island, making an illegal U-turn, or breaking the front back axle* of their vehicle. The Hebrew says "No going left into Medinat HaYehudim" (which means "The Jewish State").
 
 
But it has a double meaning in Hebrew, which is something like, "There's no being a leftist in the Jewish State." Well, it's not that funny in English, but I thought you'd like the picture of the sign.
 
Back to the run. Blobs there were a-plenty, yet we somehow managed to lose Dr. Do-little -- or did he lose us? -- a bit before the halfway point. A listless rendition of "Father Abraham" was sung as we swiveled our necks in hopes of catching a glimpse of the good Doctor who, of course, simply short-cutted it back to the finish.
 
It's not cricket to make fun of Englishmen after a 5-0 series defeat by Australia condemned England to their first Ashes whitewash in 86 years. But fun it is, apparently, and Fer Fox Sake took full advantage of the opportunity to subject Dead Boring to a Down-down on behalf of England as they attempt to put losing the Ashes behind them. Probably it would have been more fun had there been any other Aussies or Brits present.
 
To make up for that deficiency, and to highlight another, the Yanks were then given a Down-down because of some news item about the winners of this year's Wacky Warning Label Contest, the existence of which apparently proves how stupid Americans are. Quite the contrary, as will be proven below and be forewarned: we regard this treatment as grounds for lawsuit**.
 
*This is a real term in Hebrew! As your local "Garagenik".
** We didn't get to be the world's most litigious country just by sitting on our Ashes!

Disappearing Act - Dr. Do-little
Cricket Whitewash - Dead Boring

PLUS... GOLDMEMBER GETS A MINI ME
So that's why she didn't show up on Saturday...
Congratulations are due to our new Hash Grand-mama! Lisa, daughter of Goldmember and In-and-Out, gave birth to Maayan Frieda (3 kilos 45 grams) on Saturday, January 6, at 10:30am. Mother and baby are doing well. Grandmother would like to go running and will happily welcome anyone who wants to trek out to Kochav Yair. Contact: 052 267 1796
 
AND... THE WACKY WARNING LABELS CONTEST WINNERS
This is actually a serious promotional campaign run by Michigan Lawsuit Abuse Watch. M-LAW is an organization that believes junk lawsuits are corrupting the US civil justice system and aims "to tell the truth about abusive litigation."
 
DIRECTIONS TO RUN 665.5
Date: January 13, 2007
Time: 3:00pm (15:00)
Place: Herzliya Pituach    
Directions:
From Route 2, exit at Rabin, turn into HP on Keren HaYesod.  Turn right on Wingate St., pass Tamir Park on your left. Shortly thereafter, park in the sandy lot across from HaBrosh Street.
Yes, we used this start point before, but the route will be totally different.
Lost? Call Shock & Awe at: 054 213 0322
 
RUN 666 RE-RESCHEDULED
Will Take Place at Armageddon - No Kidding!
Run 666 will be held on December 20, somewhere around Mount Megiddo. This is the place that gave its name to the Armageddon of the Christian Bible.
More information about Megiddo's history may be found here:
and here:
 
But the basic number is that there is a prophecy in the New Testament's Book of Revelation predicting that the second-to-last battle in world history between the forces of good and evil - the final rebellion by Satan - will take place at Megiddo, followed by God's final defeat of Satan and the restoration of peace on earth. This encounter has become a byword for the end of the world. And what with things the way they are right now, there's no reason not to believe that the end of days isn't January 20th (or 13th...) 2007! So perhaps Run 666 (or 666.5) is meant to be the catalyst that will get the ball rolling toward the fiery finish... And if not, at least we will have had a nice trip on a bus, a good run, some beer and... T-shirts !!!
 
SO, PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING & RSVP TO: hashers_r_us@yahoo.com.
1. Are you coming to Run 666 on January 20th? Are you bringing children and/or friends?
2. What's your T-shirt size?
 
REMEMBER A SIMPLE REPLY TO THIS E-MAIL AND YOU WILL GET YOUR T-SHIRT (ALSO A PLACE ON THE BUS) !!!
 
IN CLOSING...

HASH TRASH - Runs 663 & 664 (formerly 663.5)

THIS WEEK: HASH FAILS TO SOLVE DARFUR SITUATION...
TIBERIAS MARATHON... DEAD SEA HALF-MARATHON...
QUIZ NIGHT IS COMING...
SATANIC FORCES TINKER WITH HARE RAISER ROSTER!!!
 
SCROLL DOWN... DOWN... DOWN... DOWN... DOWN... DOWN... DOWN... DOWN...
 
HASH TRASH - RUN 663 (or 636 if you're bad with numbers...) 
Auld Lang Hash
Place: Ramat Aviv 
Hare: Stroker aided by Boston Creamed
 
Stroker was absolutely convinced the run was under 2k. Boston Creamed was absolutely convinced it was Run Number 636. Which all goes to show that people who are bad with numbers should probably not team up. Run No. 663, it transpired, was in fact a good 6.25k, according to Captain Caveman's super-duper Dick Tracy walkie-talkie wristwatch thingie.
 
Our ranks were reinforced by Pregnant Pause and Mr. Bean who came down from Jerusalem to warm up. Mr. Bean told us tales of Hashes around the world, where the beer is on tap, flashing is de rigeur, and the songs are ribald. But more about that later.
 
Having been absolutely convinced that it was going to rain buckets on Friday night, the Hares finished marking the trail only minutes before the run commenced, and even those markings were insufficient, according to most everybody*. The first hold afforded the group an amazing view of the Ayalon Highway, yet Pregnant Pause did not stop to moon all points east. This dereliction of duty, or whatever you want to call it, was duly noted by the RA.
 
On-on! The runners circumvented the Tel Aviv University campus and began heading towards the Ramat Aviv Mall, reaching the half-way point just as raindrops began to fall. The halfway song was Auld Lang Syne -- what else? -- after which the Hares began their hunt for the tiny flour spots (allegedly), once again**.
 
Hundreds of children are starving in Sudan's war-torn western province of Darfur and the amount of flour used on Run 663, according to the RA, wouldn't have helped them survive at all. On the other hand, the last time he cited Darfur, it was for blobs that were too big.
 
Not wanting our group to be accused of wasting flour and, in doing so, abetting crimes against humanity, Hash Scribe has done some research and found some lovely diagrams describing the proper size and placement of blobs, a cute if useless virtual Hash trail, and a wonderful HHH site that proves runners are classic anal-retentives about how the trail should cover "an area of no more than 4 squares on an Ordnance Survey pathfinder 1:25000 series map"***.
 
But of course, the real crime of the day was the fact that the Hare, advised (and badly!) by her co-Hare, wrote the wrong number in the circle. Pregnant Pause and Mr. Bean serenaded Stroker as she drank her Down-down with a rousing chorus of "Here's to sister Hasher", and indeed, came up with and led the group in fitting songs on almost every other Down-down as well. Mr. Bean got "How would you like (my finger in your rear)" for being a virgin to the HHHH, Fer Fox Sake got "He's the meanest" for being the RA, and Boston Creamed got "Dinah (won't you blow me)" because it's such a pretty song.

* Whingers.
** Honestly, they didn't seem so small in the sunshine but cloudy weather made them seem kind of dim. Well, something seemed kind of dim, anyway.
*** The Oregon Kahuna Hash House Harriers (OKH3) say a dot of flour is 5 inches in diameter or 12.7 centimeters, which is HUGE. I think we can find a happy medium, don't you?
 
 
Down-downs
FRB - Captain Caveman
Bad Parent - Diablo (would have been FRB if he hadn't crossed the street dangerously and illegally)
636 - Stroker
Virgin - Mr. Bean
Tiny Tim the Gimp - Bravefart
Failure to Flash - Pregnant Pause
Showing Up 2 Weeks in a Row - Boston Creamed
DFLs (very!) - Loose Caboose, Turn-Ho (but we're glad they came)
 
RUN 664 - NEW YEAR'S DAY RUN/SWIM
Was 663.5, then 663.25 and now 664 (see below for explanation)
The Hash tradition continues! Fer Fox Sake set the New Year's Day 2007 run/swim and planned out a short 11k trail which was halved, as Captain Caveman reports, due to icky weather. "Let's see...Run #663 1/3. I sat in the car because it was cold. I saw Foxake approaching from the west so I got out of the car. Dr. D arrived with Champagne and kosher cheese and kosher salami. Goldmember arrived and complained. Letourn-Ho arrived late so we waited (still cold). No one else arrived so we ran. The Hare allowed us a 6 km shortcut. We got to the sea, took off shoes and some of us took off socks too and sort of went in. L-Ho said that compared to Oregon, it's warm. L-Ho said she was now cold so we ran back to the circle. The run was changed to 663 1/4. We had the Champagne and kosher cheese and kosher salami. We had Champagne down-downs. We had Beer down-downs. We welcomed the New Year. We went home."
 
Apparently everyone was SCB and aside from that, no one remembers any of the actual Down-downs.

 





Here's proof:

 





Also, as promised, proof that Hashers look very nice after washing.

 

Check out Goldmember's fab "Before and After" looks.
 


And if people haven't yet checked out Loose Caboose and Turn-Ho's Hash Weekend pictures, here's the link:

 
Here's to a happy 2007, everyone!!!
 
AND... SATANIC FORCES AT WORK ON HARE RAISER ROSTER
The Hare Raiser Roster has been updated to enable Run 666 (The Devil Run) to take place on the 13th of the month. This number is apparently key to its success and who are we mere mortals, after all, to argue with the Prince of Darkness and his merry minions? And so, all Hares, please make note of the changes. With the exception of Shock & Awe, they affect your run number only -- not the date of your run.
 
DIRECTIONS TO RUN 665

TIBERIAS, NEW  YORK CITY... WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
Congratulations to Fer Fox Sake #249, Andrea Plucknett (#814) and a bunch of other people we don't know who ran the Tiberias Marathon. FFS, (whose time at 04.04.01 was improved considerably over his New York Marathon time by his having followed a regimen of not training, doing one long run between November and January, and being hauled along by a stiff wind from the Golan), reports that the Tiberias event is exactly like New York except that there are 37,000 fewer participants, 2.5 million less spectators ("There was one guy cheering at the 21k mark"), and it doesn't finish up in Manhattan.
 
STILL SOME TIME TO DECIDE... DEAD SEA HALF MARATHON
 
On-on! -- Boston Creamed
