                THE WORST HASH OF THE SUMMER


Pyroman set what was unquestionably the
worst, most boring, lamest hash of the summer
so far.  Not only that, but the hashers had the 
worst breath, were the worst dressed, and had the worst hair.


The trail, which was the longest of the summer
so far, began as all the hashes have so far this
summer, at the towpath at Carnegie Ave. (BORING).
Yes, summer hashes are supposed to be boring -
no one wants to drive far and we're all hungry,
but on this hash, only if you were a halfmind, (and this
hash had the most halfminds of any hash this
summer so far), would you have followed the trail in the 
50 ft wide swath of woods between Rte. 1 and
the towpath up to Mrs. G's, and then crossed
Rte. 1, run parallel north for another mile,
crossed back under Rte. 1, and then run in
the shiggy and the river 50 ft to the side
of the towpath all the way back down to
the cars to complete what was the longest most boring
straight ever of the summer so far.
NOT shortcutting required the 
greatest self-control of the summer so far, 
and many failed, though some, particularly Jenny, 
insisted on remaining waist deep in
shiggy even while the hare, (who, by the
way, looked worse than I've seen him this
summer so far), was screaming "RUN THIS WAY"
"RUN THIS WAY" to the towpath.


The only saving grace of the hash was that
Dancing Fool collected more trash than ever
before so far this summer, and also that
the hashers managed to perform
a civil duty, (other than defecation), rescuing
the car keys locked in the trunk of the car
of some forlorn fisherpeople.  This task
required the greatest act of bravery and
faith of any hasher ever, any summer,
as the John "Paully's Friend" risked limb and limb
slipping his fingers into the sliver of a crack in the locked
trunk door created by the entire hash group,
(well maybe two of us), prying upward with all their
tiny little might. 


The second saving grace is that Pyroman, through his
great reputation, managed to fill up the ranks of 
setting volunteers in one day by threatening to set
the rest of the hashes this summer.
