Hash Trash: 11/25/07
Run: 1519
Hares: Super Stuffer & Just Steve
Venue: O'Lanagan's - 2335 W. Montrose Ave

Virgins: 3 (or was it 4? – hey, am I a great scribe or what!)

Visitors: 1 (2, if you think CP is a visitor)

Hashers: A bunch of 'em including Canned Pussy, Magnetic Muff, Special Ed Giver, Sir Poops a Lot, Lifa, Virtually Hung, Pack 'er Ass, Just Saud, Happy Ass Grabber, General Ass Pounder, Just Tyrone, Just Melissa, Wall Bang Her, Just Tom, Just John, Just Jennie, Just Steve, Super Stuff `er and probably a few others that aren't written on this torn paper plate I'm reading from.

A double-virgin haring? We all cringed at the start, knowing that the result would be at least one of:

1. The on-out being too close to the on-in, causing the pack to skip 90% of the trail.

2. The hares using "cute" trail markings that no one can understand and thus causing the pack to skip 89% of the trail.

3. The marks being so small/infrequent/ hidden/hard- to-see that the pack will give up and miss 88% of the trail.

4. The hares deciding on the theme of "we're going to make this the longest hash run ever" causing everyone but Happy Ass Grabber to take a taxi to the finish.

Or worse yet...

1. The bar wouldn't tolerate our antics.

2. The beer would be shitty/warm/ expensive.

Amazingly none of this happened, and even more amazingly the trail was actually damn good. Super Stuff `er started us off by providing the chalk talk while being chastised by the circle for not being explicit enough for the virgins. We were warned that this was an ADD run, and that if we found ourselves on the trail without chalk marks, we should follow shiny objects instead.

After the usual introductions, we spotted our first shiny object (aluminum foil) on a tree across the street in Welles Park and soon thereafter found the first check. Virtually Hung quickly figured it out and led us north toward Lawrence Ave. We veered west and proceeded to make something like 11 left turns in a row, covering every inch of street, alley and parking lot available. Crossing the river on Wilson, a check mixed up the pack for a few minutes, but 50~60 chalk arrows were finally found on the Lawrence Bridge bringing us to the beer stop at the hare's mother's house. There was a beer cooler and a couple dozen beer bottles on the back deck, along with a woman looking out the window with a "what have you freaks done to my son" look on her face. The pack guzzled nectar in the cold and endured a 1/2 mile run back to the on-in. Well done hares.

The stand-in RA was Virtually Hung, and he dispensed a bunch of well-deserved down-downs of which I have no recollection because I was very busy talking and interrupting the circle. What I do recall is the complete absence of mismanagement members. What could have happened? Did they move the hash to Saturday and not tell anyone? Did the CH3 corporate jet go down while en route to another junket in Indy/Cincy/Big Hump/Madison/ Waukesha? Assuming that the later was most likely the case, a new mismanagement was immediately installed:

Grand Mistress: Cunt & Pasties
Hare Razer: Super Stuff `er
Haberdasher: Sir Poops a Lot
Religious Adviser: Just John
Hash Cash: Bloody Thighs
Web Master: Horn-E
Hash Flash: Wall Bang Her
Hash Scribe: Lifa
Hash Sex Therapist: Magnetic Muff
Hash Human Shield: EZ on the Ass
Hash Belligerence Consultant (emeritus): Boner Malfunction

I believe C & P will be conducting her first mismanagement meeting next Sunday, but it's hard to read the date through the grease mark on this plate.

On-On,
Lifa

[Editor's Note: Thanks to the "replacement players" for keeping this week's hash going.

Rumours of a coup have been greatly exaggerated. In fact, the CH3 Mismanagement Dassault Falcon 9x Jet has returned safely from Yangon where the Generals of Myanmar kindly hosted seminars on "How Run A Tighter Ship In You Junta", "Quashing Pesky Democratic Idealism", "How to Knit Nice Tea Cosys For the Holidays From Lightly Used Buddhist Monk Vestments" and "Without Constant Vigilance, Even Your Team Could Be Upset By the Chicago Bears". Expect business as usual next week.]

The ADD hares promise a trail with lots of distractions for marks including shiny things like tin foil, balloons and bits of paper. Hopefully the hares themselves don't get distracted by something (like a hangover) and forget to lay trail! Ritalin NOT included in hash cash.

Environmentally-Friendly Public Transit :)
From Lincoln Park/Lakeview: Red Line to Belmont, Brown Line to Western, hoof it four blocks South on Western Montrose and cut East (left) or shortcut thru Welles Park, or take the Red Line to Wilson and catch the Montrose #78 bus West to Western.

From Wicker Park/Bucktown: Blue Line to Irving Park, Irving Park #80 bus East to Western, hoof it three blocks North to Monrose.


Driving :(

Hop into your hooptie and cruise to the corner of Western & Montrose and cut East 1/2 block to the bar. Plenty of street parking in the local 'hood.

VIRGINS= 2
VISTORS=0
TOTAL HASHERS= 23

The hash weekend started with the hello To SMELL THIS and goodbye to BONER party on Saturday night.  We had numerous people show up.  HUMPY DUMBTY, SMELL THIS, BONER, CHICKEN, MOUTHFUL, SUPER STUFFER, LATE AGAIN, ODOR EATER, ROTTEN WHORE, ONE HANDED TYPIST, JUST CRAIG, ITS 2 SOFT, CUMS IN MY ASSFAULT and others for a total of about 25 people who came out for this CH3 drinking party.

This hash started at the famed J & M tap and was hared by our virgin hares JUST MOLLY and JUST KATHERINE.  They had originally chosen a bar with no pitchers but made the fortuitous decision to call the GM and ask if this would be a problem to which I said hells Yes!! They made a good choice of making the J & M tap their ON-IN because we got $6 pitchers and some free pizza.  The pack was off after we stuffed our bags in JUST ROB'S truck. 

We welcomed JUST BALLS to the hash, a friend of MOUNT ME PUH’LZEE.  The pack made their way to the outside and the hares did a great job in explaining the hash marks to our Virgins J CUBED and JUST JOHN.  The pack ran down an alley and JUST ROB in his matching shoes and shorts lead the pack in the beginning.  JUST STEVE was seen climbing every fence in sight much like MR. HYDE does in the movies.  MOUNT SCHWIIINGA and BONER were holding down the back of the pack due to hangovers????  We ran by Clemente High School and crossed Division.  The pack made its way to Humboldt Park and ran around the lagoon. 

CHIP’N DALE was the leader at this point with our Virgins and found trail going west to the beer stop at the home of JUST MOLLY and JUST KATHERINE.   They served us a 30 of very inaptly-named Icehouse, which should have been called Warm House??  I think they stored it on top of the radiator overnight before bringing it out for the beer check. We stayed there for a few minutes while JUST MOLLY burned her fingers inside on the oven.  She goes to U of Chicago and doesn’t know what an oven mitt is??  The pack was soon on out and LIFA was quick to find trail back to the bar with SEX LUTHOR and the GREEN GOBLIN. 

Back at the bar the pack had to wait until the Bears halftime because the game started at 3 pm.  If the NFL hadn’t changed the start time only the week before we would have run this hash at 1 pm so the pack wouldn’t piss of the bar patrons by singing during the game.  This caused a few hashers to leave early and the circle was started around 5 pm, about 30 minutes after we got back.  We punished the hares for such a wonderful trail.  The FRB was JUST ROB.  JUST STEVE was pointed out for being a racist in the hash because he was happy to beat JUST ROB to the beer stop.  JUST MOLLY also accused JUST ROB for stealing JUST HARRSONS birthday cake but that is perfectly acceptable hash behavior so we made JM drink with her co-hare.  We sent off JUST BONER to Florida with the song “IT’S A SMALL DICK AFTER ALL!!!” after he requested the song a 12 inch hard-on!!  Nice try BONER!!! 

We welcomed J Cubed and Just John to the hash as virgins they are looking to start a hash in Bloomington, Illinois.  We wish them well and the Chicago Hash will support their efforts.  WE welcomed back our 6-month reboot FROSTED DISCHARGE who has been running races over the summer.  MOUNT SCHWIINGA has been busily creating the ANTHRAX logo for the hash this year and then the Circle was closed because the Bears game was back on.  The pack was disappointed but I felt it was better to close the circle then risk making the regulars mad and anyways we did eat most of their pizza and ate JUST ROBS cake!!!  Just to let you know he really did not steal it but it was a good story that many people believed? 

The pack proceeded to break up and BONER was really getting wasted.  He even had to run out the back door to enter the spew-a-thon contest that was caused by JUST STEVES shot.  PRINCESS LABIA showed up and we wished her luck at the Volleyball game along with MOUNT SCHWIIINGA.  ITS TOO SOFT, BONER and I took off for home after we said goodnight to the Hares.  BONER and I picked up food and he stayed at my place but what was really funny was the program we watched on the BBC.  Check it out if you have a chance.  BONER was total enthralled with this show.  SEE YOU ALL AND HAVE A GREAT TURKEY DAY. http://www.bbcamerica.com/content/250/index.jsp
