Hares: Twatnot, Indecent Exposure, and Drag 'n Blow

Hounds: Daffy Dildo, Ollage, Assma, Knees, Gaping Festering Hole, Monica Spewinski, Port-a-John, Slipper, Piss Boy, Just Karen, and Just Carrie (apologies to anyone I forgot)

 

The hares were off at about 1:30 from the west Magnolia play field on a chilly, windy spring Sunday. Only two hounds bothered to follow the admonition to wear some kind of costume to celebrate spring, Knees and Gaping both sporting capes. After giving us the appropriate lead time for a live run, the hounds were off after us and the confusion soon followed. Apparently about half the pack got hooked into the first false and most of them couldn't find the "x" denoting the false trail that IE insists he laid in the grass. He was constantly expressing concern that hounds would actually see our marks and catch us by following trail so I suspect he was a tad overzealous in concealing the x. Some came back to the check and picked up trail from there but some decided to zen with mixed results.

 

The rest of the trail apparently wasn't much less confusing but eventually most of the hounds trickled in to the beer check which was under a large water tower at 39th & Dravus on top of the hill and affording a lovely view of Seattle and the Cascades. Some of the hounds that decided to zen were certain that we were going to Discovery Park and ran their which I found quite funny until I found out that ID actually laid a false to Discovery. It would have been much funnier if they'd just run their on their own conviction but I'll take what I can get. I'll just say that the actual trail we laid deviated at several points from what we planned. There were some communication problems but the net result was confused hounds and sometimes you need to fuck with the hounds.

 

From the beer check it was a short dash back to the start and the circle. We welcomed the virgin and the visitor with beer, Gaping Festering Hole was loud and obnoxious as always but his ass stayed silent this time, unlike the day before at the Seattle Hash. Knees did a great job of repeatedly making Daffy Dildo and Ollage drink, once for being gay lovers and I forget what the other charge was but it was worthy. Drag 'n Blow was made to drink from the new orthopedic shoes she wore and thought were safe because she only drove the beer to the beer check and didn't run. Now she knows better. The hares were made to drink for a number of ridiculous and largely fabricated charges, but at least you didn't hear us bitching and whining about it like certain officers at the Seattle hash the day before. We drank our beer proudly like true hashers. I didn't even throw up.

 

After a good circle with lots of accusations I can't remember, we retired to the fine Village Pub for a few beers before calling it a day.

 

On on!
