“Man Called Horse” (MCH) warned the group that it’d be a long run, but it turned out to be a fairly refreshing jaunt of 9.3KM—Mike “Love Canal” Rust logged the distance on his GPS. Although much of the run was on the elevated klong sidewalks, MCH mixed in some trekking on the hummocky causeways bordering the golf course and the miscellaneous trenches on either side. Laverick Maverick did a good job of avoiding a twisted ankle, although Noriega was not so lucky, nor was Dodic, visiting from Pyongyang, Korea.
MCH did a god job of keeping the pack together with some tricky checks, so much so that some of the more notorious walkers (Eid, Nok, Dik, and Oi) gave the faster harriers a run for their money. But this solidarity was not to last for long and soon, with Beef Eater and Ian “Ajarn Kee Mao” Slaton smashing checks left and right, Love Canal consulting his GPS, Pam “Nickerless” Carter coaxing the troops along and Noriega giving it the “college try,” the Walkers were left behind and the pack continued on.
As darkness settled, the pack meandered its way back to the on-on, having taken advantage of checks laid in close proximity to each other—the hare showing keen foresight in doing so due to the inability of harriers to see jack shit after 6:20 PM. Close checks and well-connected paper toward the end of the run always are a big help for dark, winter time hashes.
Due to fatigue, ennui or just cautious anticipation of the coming outstation run at Ko Samet, the hashers remained mellow and lethargic in the Circle. Ajarn K. Mao called in some of his fellow rugby friends for losing to each other (football actually – Scotland lost to Tibet and Wales lost to Antarctia -ed). Frank Noriega got nailed for proposing “Gay Night” at his bar to attract more customers, much to Ajarn’s chagrin. Nevertheless, most of the hashers seemed keen to a walk on the wild side and kept the “gay” theme going by accusing each other of being in the closet.
Prick of the week went to a midget (real name unknown), a good six centimeters shorter than Tim “Crash” Daly, for ambiguous reasons, probably having to do with her sitting on the pita bread that was intended to be the hashers’ snacks. The midget donned the apparatus which was nearly the length and breadth of her own legs and got a boost from Ajarn when he launched her up about six inches with a wedgie. This was the midget’s first hash since returning from New Zealand where she played Frodo’s opium addicted girlfriend in “The Lord of The Rings.”
