The Hash was hosted by David at his rental place near
Moototua, just behind Giordano’s. The hare was Crime, and he had set a
relatively easy run, because the weather was crap. However, Godfather
remarkably made the rain stop as the pack set out of the gate, and it held up
until the majority had returned to the house – Jehovah, it’s a miracle. So the
trail led us past Lynn’s and on to the hospital road. Down and over the Vaitele
road, we turned right at the insurance company, and made our way back to cross
island road. Then it was on home, and sweet tiny nuts.
POD stepped in as GM and welcomed the smallish circle. There
were no newbies, but the retreads were Nettie, Sunny Side Up, Black Swan,
Octopussy and Screamer. Witch Doctor was appointed Shoe Inspector, and she
zeroed in on Octopussy. David claimed to have seen the price tag inside the
shoe, this lead to a Time Traveler Award as the shoe had not been removed as
yet.
Celebrity Awards went to Slim Shady, Godfather and Titty
Galore for being in the paper, Poumuli for forgetting the clippings and
Lewinsky for Da Head (severed head found on beach in Fiji).
This Day in History Awards went to Witch Doctor (1716 – The
Battle of Dynekilen forces Sweden to abandon its invasion of Norway), Il Capo
and Screamer (1937 – The Marco Polo Bridge Incident provides the Imperial
Japanese Army with a pretext for starting the Second Sino-Japanese War),
Lewinsky (1998 – Abkhazia releases Clinton and Lewinsky stamp) and Sunny Side
Up (no reason).
Turning to the GM’s awards, a Confusion Award went to Wahoo
who was convinced she was on the celeb list (not), that this was not a BYO, and
generally for next week’s fashion show. Then from one extreme to another, from
ill prepared to well prepared, as Witch Doctor pointed to the sheer amount of
paper left over from setting the trail – David got the Boys Scout Award (even
though the paper had been supplied by Poumuli, who remained silent).
StrapOn and Il Capo had been so excited on the run it
sounded like they were making a porno, although Il Capo had said that she was
going to puke. Nettie and Godfather were also called forward for the squeal of
excitement when Godfather spilled his drink on her, yet had a handy towel ready
to do some wiping.
Lewinsky nominated the GM for the Overly Excited Award, as
they had been towing a vehicle from Savaii, and the GM had been a bit flustered
so that when they arrived at Transporter’s she excitedly placed the gear in
park, from whence it jammed. She was joined by Lewinsky for making her do it in
the first place.
Black Swan self-nominated as she had been at Firstcummer’s
wedding and been asked to do a reading, and self-censored herself to call her
Forerunner instead. David tried to nominate Il Capo for the delayed start to
the run due to toilet break, but mucked it up so that both of them took it.
Poumuli tried to nominate Lewinsky for leaving the BBQ behind in Poutasi, but
this was false information as it was Godfather who simply hadn’t brought it
back – this led to a down down for Poumuli. Lewinsky further drew attention
away by nominating chef Crime for a respectful one.
It was pointed out that it was Screamer in Fiji’s birthday
today, thus Screamer took one. Godfather noted that every year POD wins the
Lalomanu half-marathon, except this year it was some overseas bitch. POD
excused the poor show by timing of office work, but also shared this one with
Lewinsky and Sunny Side Up.
David was nominated for a failure to understand Hash, with a
question of where are we going to Il Capo during the run – Octopussy joined for
an absurdist remark. Lewinsky wanted to give one to the host for his
environmentally friendly employer SPREP, and who was described by Wahoo as
really brainy, but David got him to join for his over-excitement.
Godfather then provided an update on what had happened with
the Hamilton Boys at the Edge – a bag snatcher had run off with a tourist’s
bag, only to be stopped by Crime, pissed as a newt, so that when Godfather
congratulated him, he was quite confused as to what he was talking about. Godfather
then nominated anyone who has not heard the Hamilton Boys – POD, Octopussy,
Black Swan and Sachi.
The Hare and the Host, Crime and David were saluted before
the BBQ was consumed
On On
Poumuli, IKA Slit
