HASH TRASH - RUN 665.5
Poop in Pituach

Place: Herzliya Pituach
Hare: Shock & Awe, aided by Doggie Style

Circle up did we Hashers by the dinosaur topiary of Herzliya Pituach, the origins of which are quite mysterious. Why topiary? Wherefore dinosaurs? How did they get the purple flowers to grow out of the eye sockets? Googling both in Hebrew and English has yielded nothing, but one thing is certain: these are the only animals in town not roaming free to deposit doo-doo wherever they like.

The run was excellently marked with plenty of long running stretches, and was perfectly timed so that walkers and runners met up almost simultaneously. The half-way point song was Barney ("Bowdler of the 20th century") the Purple Dinosaur's "I Love You, You Love Me", a song so sickly sweet that, as FFS pointed out, it practically begs for a Hash version. And so, here it is, courtesy of the Big-Hump Hash House Harriers of Saint Louis, Missouri. The first part, at least, follows the Barney song:

I LIKE BEER
I like beer
Can't you see?
When I drink I am happy!
Pale ale, dark lager
Tasty, foamy brew
I lift my cup and drink to you!


If we keep on drinkin' and drinkin'
If we keep on sucking it down
If the beer bitch pours like a river
Till we start to stumble around
If you're losing control of your bladder
And you hope that soon we'll be through
If you think that it's time for the circle to end
There's only one thing you can do-oo

Drink it down, down, down..

Which brings us neatly to the Down-downs. There were many returnees in the wake of holiday breaks and inclement weather; many people armed with light sabers, at least two people who will never ever complain about anything ever again, and one person who got a graphic lesson in grammar (or was it anatomy?) from Deliverance. Dawg!

PLUS... PARTY SATURDAY NIGHT IN JERUSALEM
This missive just in from the Holy City: "Hi all -- I am co-hosting a party at Philadelphia this Saturday with a friend from the Rothberg International School at Hebrew U. It would be great to see you there, especially as there should be some new faces! There will be a DJ and dancing, though not compulsory, is strongly advised. See you on Saturday. -- Briony"
