Note from Flying Booger: Minneapolis hasher Pooper Scooper sent this as a comment to a previous post, but I think it’s worth posting right out where everyone will see it (everyone who reads this blog, that is . . . all eight of you).  PS raises an interesting point, one that dovetails with some of [...]

Some poor guy in the hash got a DUI about a month ago. Yesterday, he dared to speak up about an entirely-unrelated controversy that’s been raging on the local hash e-mail list.

And what [...]

Not a Hash (click to enlarge) Update (5/27/09): When I cross-posted this photo to Hashspace, my reference to cotton T-shirts mystified some fellow hashers. But I knew that if we just waited, Lord Douchebag would clarify matters: The old cotton vs. blend argument again, on which I stand firm with the ability of blend to [...]

When is a hash not a hash? When Lord Douchebag says it isn’t!
