The Vulcano Run
What has Monday the 18 to do with the Volcano run on the 15, 16 and 17? Yes, indeed nothing, but I like to
mention that those who did not participate must have had extremely good reasons, because this was a
weekend not to be missed. Great organization by our HM Herpes, Bolt-1-on and their assistants Leaky
Dick and Conrad. It was also a romantic weekend, because Tom Jones proposed to his High-School
sweetheart (no they did not know each other from their high school days, Tom Jones is picked her up from
a local high-school). But enough about this, we will keep the full volcano story for the 2000/2001 yearbook.
The Run
at Sentul
It was a “point-to-point”, starting from Cheese Balls house, which is more like a palace and obvious a
token of skilled KKN techniques. Everybody left happily, except that there were only 17 Hashers including
the hares, which made me think: “Perhaps the others who did not come know more”.
My suspicion grew stronger when Cheese Balls announced that the final destination was the Novotel
Bogor. Did he feel guilty already? We started, paper was laid liberally, until…., until it stopped. Nobody
could find paper for miles and we headed off in the perceived Novotel direction, until we hit suddenly lots of
paper again. But not for long, paper mysteriously disappeared again, and again, and again. In line with the
Olympics, the hares had erected a replica of the Sidney harbor bridge (very thoughtful) and we were
allowed to swim a river several times. But when it became dark we only had covered 1/3 of the track, now
we had to muddle along in the dark, helped by locals. But it was surprisingly how few locals knew the
location of the Novotel, one would think that they go there regularly for a round of golf or to enjoy the
Sunday brunch.
Only later we heard that the hares purposely had arranged that after one hour we would only have been
able to cover 1/3 of the run, so we could see the magnificent display of the fireflies during the remainder of
the run. Finely your scribe together with another 10 runners found the beer truck after more than 2 hours of
running, sliding and gliding. But several of our friends needed up to 3 hours to find the truck, among them
our Hash Master.
The circle
Nick Leeson brought one of his cops along, who joined us for the second time. Let us hope that he will not
become a regular member, because then we will have to increase the run fees. When the piss pourer
wanted to give him a mug of beer, he took the jug instead and finished 4 jugs before he slowed down to
mugs, was this man thirsty or what. If he gets his hash name I propose “Juggler”.
The run discussion started – still without our HM and Tom Jones – was this a good run or what. The
Hashers became unruly and started to call for ice. Holy Joop was the first who was asked to give his
opinion, he was very positive because he knew the amount of work the hares and especial Cheese Balls
had put into this run. Cheese Balls originally had planned to join the volcano run, but he decided that he
needed the whole weekend to lay paper for the run and to ask Leaky Dick to do the finishing touch on
Monday (Leaky did go to the volcano run). Leaky decided to remove most of the paper, which he thought,
spoiled the view. He might have been of the opinion that we did not need paper as we knew the
destination already.
Close to 8 hours the HM and Tom Jones came in, seconds before the run verdict was about to be given.
Bolt-1-on immediately surrendered the lead to his boss, who also seemed not too pleased with the run.
“Hash-Shit” was the conclusion. Was this right; is a Hash-Shit not a good run fucked up by external
conditions beyond the control of the hares? In this case everything what went wrong was BECAUSE of the
hares, too long and not enough paper. And if that is the case, according to rule 8, chapter 6, paragraph 3
of the hash rules (please check your manual) it is a “Shit of a run”. How can 2 of our most experienced
hashers fuck-up a run so badly? The reason might be, that they have done this on purpose. This might
have been sly maneuvering by the hares, to arrange that they were awarded a much-desired “Hash Sit”. If
that was the case, they succeeded.
Was everything bad? Yes, but we should not forget the Hare song, this was a song so sensitive and lyrics
so touching that we don’t have to wait until the end of the year to decide on the “Song-of-the-year”, we have
it already.
On, on, on,
