The Annual White Elephant Hash

Hares:  Well Drilled, Wankers Aweigh, Womb Broom, Rocky Whore, Tore Ass, Fire & Ice, Wanks With Wolves, Only 2?, Big Bird Turd, Boy Toy, Crafty
Location: Arlington, VA

Judging from the massive pile of gifts at the annual White Elephant hash, you’ve all been nice!  I know I have been – I got a life-size cardboard cutout of Usher.  I’m not sure who he is, but you will be seeing him at hash events for months to come.
Dingy snow and sub-freezing temperatures were the call for the trail.  After several disappointing winters we finally had some of the other white stuff in the form of shiggy.  At 10:00 sharp, Santa’s little elfin hares pranced off to do their magic.  One hare started trail without flour or chalk, usually a violation, but since it was Wankers Aweigh we thought it best not to point out the omission.
Back at the start, in the American Legion hall in Arlington, the fire was roaring, the kegs had been tapped, and there was little incentive to leave the camp.  That is, until Byte fussed and bitched and threatened to be very naughty, so we circled, Father Abe’d, and slid away.
The walkers stuck to their White Elephant tradition by routing out the nearest Cappuccino bar and warming up while watching for the runners to return.  Ughukh led the pack with half-cap decaf, Screws Everybody kept the crew together with caramel latte, and Do Me Next Week swept with a tall cocoa espresso.  Standard Deviant deviated with an iced mocha, decaf all the way.
Back at the Hall, Santa’s remaining elves busied themselves with cleaning up the spot where Ernie had “watered” the Christmas tree, and determining where to fit Loan Shark into the gift selection list. Tore Ass and Fire & Ice had done a brisk business at the haberdasher table where, in addition to an awesome “giveaway”, they sold their entire stock of gloves, and not just to BBT.  But before you could say “Byte’s a ho”, two of the hares returned, which gave a quorum.
Answers to last week’s Anatomy quiz:
1 – Wankers Aweigh; 2 – Ass Ogre; 3 – Latecummer; 4 – Rocky Whore two friends; 5 – Hopps; 6 – Cyclops; 7 - $2 Head; 8 – Big Sweaty Pussy; 9 – Perk-A-Set; 10 – Hollow Point; 11 – Boy Toy; 12 – Domino; 13 – Roto Router; 14 – Bavarian Bush; 15 – Almost Toast; 16 – Comes In 3 Courts; 17 – Flying Burrito.
Competition was fierce as guests sprinted around the party room holding photos of body parts next to possible subjects and fought to the front of the pack.  French Toasted and Dangerously Close fought for FRB, the lead changing hands with each submission of answers.  In the end FT held on as FRB and won the contest, DC a close second.  Bavarian Bush took “honorable mention” by getting 16 of the 17 correct in her one and only submission.  Thanks to guest scribe Rocky for producing and judging the contest, and for taking clandestine photos throughout the year.

There were no namings, no virgins, no violations (no one’s been naughty?), and no hashit – let the gifts begin!
Virgins and first-time visitors led the scramble for gifts, and the only passive round of gift selection.  By the time 2nd time hashers were called, the dirt started.  On the upside, I don’t think C-Lingus from the UK minded when the chuck wagon lamp was taken from him, it probably wouldn’t have gotten through security anyway.
Wanks With Wolves and Dual Air Bags created public safety concerns by removing their shirts on stage; Put It Out mopped the floor with his enormous bedroom booties; Great Balls of Fire selecting his own gift; Latin Anal-ist delighted the crowd modeling her new red elephant g-string, and, of course, Well-Drilled warmed us to our toes by spiking the hot apple cider.
It was delightful to visit with our old friends the foot vase, velvet Elvis, the “Max Headroom” and “You Go Girl” t-shirts, the wagon clock and the Oreo cookie jar.  Mellow Foreskin Cheese adopted a new roommate – Sally – who was promptly inflated and given an assignment at the head of the table.  Newcomer Tom Turkey went home with Dr. Strangelove, who promised we would see it again.

Hares: Hollow Point, See Dick Run, and Byte Lightning
Theme (if any):The Best Hash of 2002
Start: Metro Park and Ride lot, Rte. 29, Centreville, VA
Directions:
Directions:
Metro: Well, I guess you could take the Metro (Orange line) out to Vienna, get off, and transfer to a bus that goes out to Centreville. But you would have to get up early, really early, and also figure out the bus schedules. Better to phone a friend that has a car. That's what friends are for, anyway.
Driving:
From the East (like DC and MD): Get to I66 West in VA.  Go past the Beltway and on out past Fairfax (and the NRA headquarters on your left) to Exit 52 (Centreville, Rte. 29).   Take Exit 52, and at the bottom of the exit ramp, at the light, go Right.  You are on Rte. 29 South.  Go approx. 250 yds. (.2 mi.), and turn Right into the Park and Ride lot.  Look for the wankers milling about.
From the West: (for Roto and anyone else out his way in the Boonies): Take I66 East, to Exit 52, and then turn left, go under I66 (that's the road you were just on), and proceed 350 yds. to the Park and Ride lot on your Right.
From the South:  Find the Fairfax County Pkwy (7100) and take it North.  Exit onto I66 West.  Go approx. 3 miles to Exit 52, then take a right on Rte. 29, go 250 yds., Right into the Park and Ride.
From the North: Find the Fairfax County Pkwy (7100) and take it South.  Exit onto I66 West.  Go approx. 3 miles to Exit 52, then take a right on Rte. 29, go 250 yds., Right into the Park and Ride.
Dog Friendly Factor:
Ok.  Dogs should know how to swim in cold water.  Or at least dog paddle.
Stroller Friendly Factor:
Not a problem on the walkers trail; not recommended on the runners' trail.
Miscellaneous:
As usual, bring dry shoes and clothes.
