1 Hash House Harriets Penang P.O. Box 1153 GPO, Penang Malaysia GM: Justbeer VGM: Speed Hound On Sex: Hari Hari Mau Hash Cash: Grandma MEMBERS ONLY Date: 19 th August 2012 Newsletter 2115 Note from the GM The lead co-hare Itchy Bai invited me to tag along run setting and assured me that even a slow runner like me would have no problem and neither would I impede him. We started to set around 3.45pm on Thursday afternoon and got out just after the runners had headed up the road towards the start. I have been told that it was an impressive run and I must admit I thought so too. Going on the up and down trails with refreshing waterfalls, falling down on dry, shaley paths, thereby putting more holes in my pants, it was all good fun. At around 5.30pm we hit the hash highway on our way On Home and we came across FTAC paper literally strewn about like confetti over the floor and clipped on leaves. Since our paper IS different we had no fears that our members would not be able to distinguish between the two papers, with theirs headed towards the Botanical Gardens whilst ours had to head left to go back to TAR College. But the best laid plans... When we got back to the run site a very relieved Monty Python greeted us and said he had flagged them off a little after the appointed time. Just over an hour later the first runner was back and from there to around 7.45pm the rest of the runners trickled back in. However Geeman then received a phone call to say that some Hashers had ended up in the BOTANICAL GARDENS and needed picking up. Goodyear was the Good Samaritan and headed off to pick up Hard Khaw, Sementara and Mother Hen. Suddenly Bing (one of our guests) also appeared in a car with another Good Samaritan, Owen. It seems Bing also hit the Botanical Gardens and Owen brought him over to TAR College. By 8.15pm the 'lost' Hashers were back at the run site but I do wonder to myself what is it about Monty's run that causes even veteran Hashers to end up in the wrong place even with plenty of paper around to follow and the fact they should know the paths by this time. Perhaps too busy chatting away and not focusing on the paper. Who knows, but this happened last time too on

2 Monty's run!! It was a very good run nonetheless and the evening was enjoyed by 42 members and 8 guests. Thank you to Monty's for the organising of 'contract setters' and to Snakecharmer for all the cooking of the delicious food. Many thanks too to General Soon for the case of beer. In all a very good evening which once again went on late into the night. Thank you Monty. The Circle The guests were welcomed and it was good to see so many new faces and some returning ones too. Bing was then iced for ending up in the Botanical Gardens and having to be rescued by Owen. Hard Khaw, Sementara and Mother Hen were suitably rewarded for doing the same thing. A charge from the floor saw Kali, GM PH3, called to the ice but since he wasn't there a lookalike in Take Care was selected as substitute. The charge was for sexual discrimination of the Harriets by not charging the women but charging RM10 for the men to participate in the PH3 forthcoming run. Finally the Hare of the day Monty was iced in appreciation of a great run, good food. It was an excellent evening. Other notes: Monday 20 th August PH3 has invited Harriets to their holiday run at The Vale of Tempe, Indian Temple 6.00pm. Women free but men RM10. Thursday 23 rd August is Sex Bitch's farewell run before she and family return to Australia. After some confusion it IS at Charlie Market as previously reported. Please come to support her and to have your chance to say farewell to someone who has been a loyal supporter of the Harriets over the years. On On The Hare of the day

An American Indian on horseback came along and offered her a ride to a nearby town.

17 She climbed up behind him on the horse and they rode off. The ride was uneventful, except that every few minutes the Indian would let out a Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a' so loud that it echoed from the surrounding hills.. When they arrived in town, he let her off at the local service station, yelled one final 'Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a!' and rode off. "What did you do to get that Indian so excited?" asked the service-station attendant. "Nothing," the woman answered. "I merely sat behind him on the horse, put my arms around his waist, and held onto the saddle horn so I wouldn't fall off." "Lady," the attendant said, "Indians don't use saddles." 2) News from the Olympics News from the Olympic sailing... The British took the gold, the Americans took the silver and the Somalians took a middle aged couple off the beach and are looking for a GBP ransom. The head of the Somali Olympic squad has apologised to officials on behalf of their team after realising that shooting and sailing were two separate events. 3) More News from the Olympics There was a heat for the 200m Olympic women's breaststroke, and the eight women who entered the race were named Emily (Aus), Maggie (Nz), Liz (Aus), Jean (USA), Alice (Can), Wanda (Ger), Tina (Rom) and Rose (GB). After approximately 2 minutes and 10 seconds, Emily won the race, followed 5 seconds later by Maggie, who was declared the second place finisher. Nearly 40 minutes later, Rose finally completed the race. When the reporters asked why it took her so long to complete the race, she replied, 'I don't want to sound like I'm a sore loser, but I think the other girls were using their arms.'
