3. OnOnOn
4. Hareline
Every year… a new hareraiser comes aboard promising to be next 'big and better'… whatever!! What was it last year?
Oh… RIGHT!! The… "Now with new and improved harerazor!"
So… we made HER one of the new GMs!! Along with "Slurpee", as GM… is Mr. Old School himself, "Puts It Out". Speaking of "Puts It Out"… I promised him that I wouldn't have pages and pages of 'intro' so that you wankers could get right to the directions!! I lied!!
However… if you want to avoid the Introduction… you can go directly to the Directions to the Hash
There was one trail last year that I hared in Tysons Corner and "Slurpee" comes up to me and she says, "This is outside WH4 Territory". And I asked her how she figured that as so? So she says… "Bowie is actually closer!!" Apparently, "Slurpee" used 'The White House' as the central point and when anyone asked for a hare date and offer her the location… she measured the distance from 'The White House'!!
We did inform her that… there were a few more hashers closer to Tysons than Bowie!! Thank goodness she agreed… because I would have hated to have moved the "Start" location to Bowie!!
Okay… now go get your directions!!
