The LRF has returned, and with him comes a slew of SRB's the likes of which
the PHHH has never seen. Up, down, through...it matters not to these trusty
disciples of 242. They chewed up turf with abandon, challenging even the
mighty girdled one himself.

But alas, PHHH #515.4 fell short of their youthful exuberance. Promises of
danger, intrigue and confusion abounded, yet nothing reared its ugly head
beyond the 643 lbs. of flour LRF used to set the hash. In his defense, LRF
has continued his assiduous policy of setting on public lands. So diligent
were his efforts that the marks strayed directly into the most public lands
of all: the Princeton National Guard Proving Ground. LRF's cryptic warnings
conjured images of wild-eyed weekend warriors firing indiscriminantly into
the countryside, screaming: "Eat white-hot death you pinko lackeys."
Concertina wire, sharpened punji sticks, M-60 tanks wedging a path of
destruction through the forest--we found none of it. But without our military
liaison IUTHW, the mood was tense nonetheless.

Three-and-a-half miles of break-neck hashing claimed its share of victims.
The Apres seemed more like a pilgrimage as numerous hashers dropped to their
knees and wept tears of contrition for ever hashing in the first place.
Luckily, LRF's benevolence shined through the miasma of despair and 200%
humidity. He required that only the drivers run back to their cars, providing
these cogent directions to the start: "mjgrhs down hill mfrhgtdf idiot."
Armed with this knowledge, half of the drivers set out in the wrong
direction, only to attempt hitching a ride with some frightened octogenarians
(it would have worked if MLOS's beer-breath weren't so overpowering). Yet
this misfortune proved serendipitous, as 242's rookie magically appeared from
the woods proclaiming that he had waited at the finish (marked with an 'F')
for quite some time. Perhaps a run-down of hash marks might help next week.
