The Run by our Mystery Run Reporter: Circle Jerk

 

A decent enough crowd turned up for Comes Quietly’s run. You can always expect a Runner’s Run with Comes Quietly. Luckily there was also an “Official Shortcut” for those that wanted to take in the scenery but did want to get too hot and bothered with the running bit.

 

 The Pack threw in its own voluntary T-check by first heading up the hill before realizing no one was on Paper! With an about face, the Pack then loped off into the jungle.

 

It soon became clear that while the general order of the day is “Run, Drink, Eat”, for some Runners, the order got reversed and soon they were diving off the trail and grabbing sticks to swipe and swing at rambutans and durians (Francis and Amy). Soon the air was thick with the smell of sweat and exhaled Durian! Some non-FRBs suddenly found the wherewithal to become FRBs!

 

It is rare that Hashers take an interest in Entomology but Tiger Lilly and Circle Jerk were overheard debating as to whether it was an ant’s nest hanging in the tree or a bee’s nest hanging in the tree. Despite several rounds of “it is an ant’s nest”, “no, it is a bee’s nest”, neither of them had the courage to poke their nose in and get a definitive answer.

 

Can Not Can, demonstrated the remarkable powers of the liver to regenerate itself. Last Saturday, on the Quad Run, Can Not Can was observed to have a hot coffee whisky totty followed by a G&T. And that was just his warm up routine before the Run! 

 

The Run proved to be well laid with little opportunity to get lost, or generally hang around and pretend that there are already enough hashers checking out the trails. Although there was one opportunity for Wet Patch, Handbag and Aye Aye to brush up their various Northern English/Scottish linguistic skills.

 

As the pack skirted the jungle path around the reservoir, Croc of Sh*t put on a excellent rendition of “Panda Dances With Antelope” as he hopped over gnarled roots in hot pursuit of the thundering herd, lost his footing, but made an elegant/non-elegant (delete as necessary) recovery.

 

With a final loop, and aching knees, the pack put in a final push along the highway before arriving back at the Beer Van. It probably should not seem better than sex, but that first gulp of 100+ after such a run, always feels damn good.

What did we think of the Run?  Votes came in with exclamations of ‘full of short cuts’  ‘the best run I have ever done’ and ‘quite a good run’.  As usual, great run.

Would-be Trafficker’s Surprise $6000 drug deal was M&M’s

A would-be drug trafficker seeking an ecstasy haul was left red-faced by the Melbourne underworld – paying thousands of dollars for blue M&M’s.  Dwayne Grant Seabourne, 21, of Devonport, Tasmania, Australia, admitted to police in an airport car park in November last year that he had just flown back into the state with 400 ecstasy pills.

 

But he was in for a rude shock when the package he had concealed down his pants was opened, the Burnie Supreme Court heard Crown Prosecutor Jackie Hartnett revealed the luckless Seabourne had imported hundreds of blue M&M’s.

 

And his reaction in a recorded police interview showed he was rather angry,  Ms Hartnett said, after forking out $6000 for nothing more stimulating than chocolate.

‘He felt someone had essentially ripped him off, ‘ she said.

 

Even Seabourne, a past champion darts player, could not hide a momentary smirk when it was explained in court that he had been duped.

 

While buying confectionary is not illegal, Seabourne’s admission to police left him facing several charges.  Appearing before Justice Shan Tennent, he pleaded guilty to attempting to traffic in a controlled substance, along with other minor drug use charges.

 

Ms Hartnett told the court Seabourne had traveled to Melbourne from Launceston on November 26 last year, intending to buy MDMA, otherwise known as ecstasy.

‘He returned to Launceston with what he believed were ecstasy tablets,’ she said.

‘He purchased 400 tablets for $15 each intending to sell them for $30 each.’.

 

She submitted to Justice Tennent that Seabourne should be sentenced on the ‘basis of the evil intended, not on the basis of the evil that could have been accomplished’.

Defence Counsel Katie Edwards said the harm that could have come from the ‘particularly unsophisticated attempt’ to deal drugs was nil. 

Justice Tennent adjourned sentencing Seabourne to 4.15pm on Wednesday.
