PRINCETON HHH HASH #433.4 Date: November 14,1993 Weather: Hotski Gavotski Set By: Solo Hashers: Geezer, Dead Barney in a Sewer, Dybshyg, Wacko, Road Jaundice, Ron Roessler, Jud Brewer, Art Taylor, Effross First to Cooler: Joe Burns Description, polemics, comments, and lies: There are so many ways to start: “Just when you thought it was safe....” “He’s Baaaaack.....” etc., etc., boring, boring, boring write up stuff; you can imagine it all. In fact it’s all so overwhelmingly, stupifyingly tedious that instead we will give you another of your beloved scribe’s favorite pointlessly stupid riddles (just to set the tone, you know): “What do you call a Philippino contortionist?” Suffice it to say that, although 241.2 hashes have passed since Effross’ last appearance on October 9, 1988, nothing much has changed. Number 192.2 was a typical mindless LRF hash in the Herrentown Woods. Apparently the Reptilian One was substituting for Genghis Kahne who had cancelled (surprise!). Other luminaries were there, however: Lopez, as yet unnamed for his 200 yard fiasco (“Oh, it was snowing sooooo hard”), Son of Geezer, who had already committed his Crime of the Century (hence the 2/10 in the number). The uninspired write-up notes that “Effross was lost to injury.” Well, you win some and you lose some. Apparently his injuries have at last healed, because there he was, camo hat and all, on the Stevenson porch, all set to rock and roll. Somewhere off Route 27, about half way to New Brunswick, there lies a vast wasteland of construction sites, scrub farmland, and nameless roads that run endlessly from here to there, never quite getting to “there”. We explored rather a lot of this stuff on this hot Sunday, thrashing aimlessly in even more desultory fashion than usual, or so it seemed. Solo favored us with a series of falses ending with arrows, and this addled pack took a long time to figure out his technique. The highlight of the day was Ron’s swan dive into a fetid, malodorous stream. Effross spent much of the 1:40 thrashing in the thorns, but as I said already, nothing much has changed since his last appearance.
