Little Neck Sets Wettest Run of the Year
Run # 577 June 23, 1997
Hare: Little Neck
Hashit:: Oozing
by Snot
The run started from Lincoln Mall car park just off Breakneck Hill exit off route 146. Attendees included Little Neck (hare), Basket Boom Boom, Beyond Hope, Bondo Jovi, Jake, Gobble Gobble, Oozing Dick To Phone, Shine on Harvard Moon, (Boston) and yours truly.
The run set off into uncharted territory after a circle jerk around an old drive in where Jaws 1 was the featured event. With your scribe was the FRB soon to find the first water crossing, with your scribe entering first with Basket, Oozing complete with phone in poly bag and Shine On. However Little Neck, Bondo, Hopeless and Gobble Gobble watching from the overhead bridge thinking they were going to keep dry, how wrong they were. The trail very quickly led to another wet crossing after which came another circle jerk which your scribe blew right through-by luck.
En route our nature conservationist-Little Neck was guarding a female turtle laying eggs right by the run path. The circle jerkers eventually came around to eventually catch me up at the beer check which was conveniently placed across the Blackstone River, which was more polluted than Chernobyl. Beers were consumed with our choirmaster leading the mid point singing. The on back was back over the river onto a path which led to yet another water crossing at this point both Oozings phone and pager were gurgling as he had not anticipated the number of crossings and the need for more bags. Up through an old building yard where Gobble Gobble did an amazing back flip aided by Basket and Jake, I have to say at this point Jake was the innocent party. Fortunately Gobble’s pride was the only thing that was dented with a slight stiff neck. The Tyson method of retaliation was considered but Gobble did not want to swallow any batteries.
The On-On was at Little Necks abode with marks for the run ranging from -17 to +3, comments of too dry were uttered, Oozing committed a terrible sin of stealing the Hashshit as he had missed it so much and for his sins it was awarded back to Oozing who was very pleased at getting back his rightful heirloom. Mosquitoes started biting quickly and candles were erected with Hopeless trying to set his ars on fire with one of them. Some more home-brew by Bondo complimented the grog and sarnies. Certainly a record for the number of river crossings, a good time had by all.
