 Hares: Sticky Keys, Senim, NVGs
Namees: Just Patrick M. is now Sticky Keys, Just Patrick C. is now Harry Potty

Tale of the Trail: every time Senim hares, people almost get blown up.  It's not any accident that people start getting itchy when Senim goes offroad.  Fortunately, no one ran into any explosives this time.  The pack did completely blow by a gate guard who was supposed to deliver the words for YBF, but could only utter "straight line stop here!"  Ah well.  This also marked one of the tiny few times that something was too vulgar even for Shut The F*ck Up to say, which is almost unheard-of...
 

7 August 2008 - Hash #30

 Hares: Shut The F*ck Up, Earl Jam
Namees: None this week!

Tale of the Trail: No matter how much forethought goes into a trail, something usually goes wrong.  This was almost textbook - until the pack ran into two-week old flour that hadn't blown away.  They still got there...a little later than expected.  This was Sausages in the Mist's last hash as he moves on to a combat outpost in the hinterlands...
 

24 July 2008 - Hash #29

 Hares: Running Dog Lackey, I Like It In the Middle
Namees: Just Krista B. is now NVGs

Tale of the Trail: A long, most elusive trail indeed.  The pack broke into several groups, all trying to find trail at different parts.  After over two hours of stop and go trail following, which included climbing over a wall, a round being fired, and RAS ended up lassoing the different groups into the circle where we heard one of the best stories ever delivered in the circle...which netted the name NVGs...

29 May 2008 - Hash #25

 Hares: (needs reminder from someone who was there...)
Namees: (help!)

Tale of the Trail:
 There we were, 15 hashers and 6 virgins excited to do a trail that Senim wasn’t involved in laying (finally). 
    The trail took us across Disney Drive through the common starting area of the village.  After looping through the area the entire pack lost the trail and started spreading out to find it again.  One of the younger members of the pack curled into a fetal position and whimpered remembering the shitty trails from weeks before.
    Luckily we coaxed him back to the run as the trail was relocated and we took off down Disney and through the PX area.  More time on Disney located the beer check behind the brick and mortar barracks near the hospital. 
    After a relaxing time opening bottles on a Hesco barrier we resumed the trail headed towards the Pax terminal and the USO.  After a few false starts the trail resumed headed South.  Several members of the pack were positive we would end up at the Aviation DFAC and seemed extremely surprised to continue past it.
    A boob check near the BTIF was followed by some strange markings caused by hares running low on chalk.
    When an armed guard reminded us that we could not cut through the TIF compound we circled to the other side where we picked up the trail and followed it to the end and the circle in the new gym.........ON ON to the next hash


15 May 2008 - Hash #24
 Hares: Senim, Man Love, and Just Pat M.
 Namees: None this week!

Tale of the Trail:
So there we were, 15 hashers and 10 virgins ready to do the trail that Senim, Man Love, and Just Patrick planned.  The pack had a late start so instead of following the trail to the Jirga Center and boarding the bus there they road the bus to the Jirga Center and got off and then on the bus. 
    The bus then took them around the perimeter and dropped them off near the grey water area on the East side.  Our hares were sweating bullets at this time due to an encounter with Bagram’s finest while on the way to start the trail.  Luckily they made it to the start before the pack AND no one had to be bailed out. 
The trail took the pack around the grey water area, through some tents and over a wall.  Nothing like flour to mark a trail over white gravel and white tents!  One person drew blood when clearing the wall but bravely soldiered, er Airmanned, on to finish the trail.  Once the pack figured out the need to clear the wall they quickly picked up the trail and regrouped along the main road.  The Hares who were waiting at the midpoint had an excellent view of the group as they massed together and took off down the obvious trail.  The View actually improved as the pack returned from the 100yd run to a YBF. 
    Shortly after returning to the check the pack picked up the trail, greeted the Hares and watched them take off for the second leg of the run.  The trail followed a rutted dirt road that was bordered by mine fields on either side.  Almost like Senim has an affinity for mines.  The pack managed to stay on the narrow, crappy, road and had some reminders of why it is great to bring a flashlight—the trail isn't always smooth. 
    Upon regaining the road the pack followed the trail through the old Soviet ammo bunkers.  After encountering the bus and a checkback they located the hares at the finish overlooking most of Bagram on a patio up above some bunkers.……….ON ON to the next hash!

 

 1 May 2008 - Hash #23 

Hares: Just Travis H., Shut the F*ck Up, Midget Bone Biter
Namees: Just Tom D. is now Man Love; Just Travis H. is now Senim

Tale of the Trail:
     So there we were, 17 hashers, 1 virgin and one FNG ready to actually run the trail instead of getting lost in a miasma like two weeks previously.  Two of our hares were on remedial duty (Midget Bone Biter and Just Travis H.) and they had Shut the F*ck up join them to try to improve the trail.  Our trail actually turned, NOT going directly across into KBR village as we left the JOC compound.  The enthusiasm at the new direction was shortlived as we followed the trail through some KBR land.  We followed the trail through many twists and turns until we were running behind the Koele DFAC.  At this point the allusions a Hare had made to the trail being the “Smells of Bagram” route became clear.  Unfortunately at this point it seems the trail was disturbed by workers unloading trucks for the DFAC.  This resulted in jumping the midpoint (Cold beer at the USO!) And cornering the hares as they were returning from the direction of the clamshell.  

    Minor chaos followed, but the final arrival at the abandoned house past the Jirga center worked out.

    Dishes, NOW! attempted to violate every traffic law on Bagram while removing the undercarriage of a vehicle in the field.  Luckily the vehicle and all occupants survived and their mission to secure a bottle opener met with success.

    Prior to commencing the circle we discovered a joint operation occurring on the second floor of the building.  All evidence points to a movement to contact with the female Air Force and male Army involved.

    After commencement of the circle, punishment of the hares, and rejection of the adopt-a-hare program we were on to the namings.
    Just Tom D. came prepared with a tale that he hoped would minimize his embarrassment, and give him a reason to speak about getting freaky with his future wife on the beachfront.  His tale was overshadowed by Midget Bone Biter’s tale of Just Tom D. laying on the thick grass near the MOD offices while an ANA soldier knelt near him and gently stroked his cheek.  It wasn’t even close on the vote—Man Love became his name!
After the illustrious tale from Man Love it was time for Just Travis H. to tell his tale.  His tale wasn’t one of the normal high school or college embarrassment involving bumping uglies with a future spouse.  Instead his tale, complete with visual aids, described leading Shut the F*ck Up Over a wall and through a field as part of reconning the has route.  Unfortunately as they reached the edge of the field they encountered some warning tape—with the letters backwards since they approached from the wrong side.  End result—the name of Senim.  (Mines spelled backwards) ……….ON ON to the next hash!


 

17 April 2008 - Hash #22 

 Hares: Dishes, NOW!, Banana Hammock, Midget Bone Biter
Namees: Just Luis O. is now Scratch n' Sniff; Just Jason R. is now Spit It Out

Tale of the Trail:
So there we were, 25 hashers, 8 virgins and one FNG ready to run another trail winding through the crowded base of BAF.  Our hares (Dishes, NOW!, Midget Bone Biter and Just Travis H.) were inexperienced but motivated and had done several recons of their trail.  After a short lead the pack took off across the street and into the same village we always seem to start with—we were moving great until the first check where we found two YBFs and no trail.  After a long period of wandering around we picked up trail past one of the YBFs (turns out it was from an old trail).  Then across Disney and to the DFAC; after some circling around we found trail and on to a boob check where the pack split, both groups on some sort of trail—one going forward and the other backward.  When we came together, always a good thing, we realized what happened, turned around and headed to the end.  Little did we know that we had shortcutted about half the trail, except for RDL, our FNG who split from the pack and ended up running to the beer check where he found no beer (I guess the hares hid it well for the second week in a row!) and on to the ‘hash note’ that he couldn’t find.  At that point, alone and confused, he called it a day and we missed him and Just Dave R. at the circle.  Still not sure what happened to Just Dave.

At circle we splashed the hares, a few nerd name violators and the numerous virgins.  Then it came to naming.  Just Jason R. told a long story that seemed to take forever; I couldn’t hear half the story but it didn’t matter anyway b/c he was named for his reluctance in the telling, not the story itself.  It took so long to recite that we told him to spit it out and then named him the same.  Then it came to Luis/Fred O. and the only story he could tell was of his various aliases (never asked if there was a reason why he switched names often) so we didn’t get too many options until Midget Bone Biter told us about certain habits he learned about the first time he met Just Luis.  Apparently, he has quite an itch to scratch.

And we ended circle with a round of Swing Low as always.  ON ON to the next hash.
