Where does “On On” come from? Who knows? The only thing I’m fairly certain of is that it didn’t come from hashing. A few years ago I got into an argument with another hasher. He insisted it was a hasher who first came up with the “Drinking Club with a Running Problem” motto, sometime in [...] For some reason the San Diego news channel that owns this video disabled embedding.

I met Grease when I was posted to Okinawa in 1989. He was a fixture of the hash there, and I’ve always believed he engineered my “election” as the Okinawa H3 GM.
