Editor’s Notes
… February made me shiver With every paper I’d deliver. Bad news on the doorstep I couldn’t take one more step.
I can’t remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride. But something touched me deep inside The day the music died. -American Pie by Don McLean Record cold and snow covered much of North America and Europe as winter winds howled and the mercury plummeted. Even Thailand experienced extremely cold temperatures and arguably the coldest Bangkok Monday Hash ever. You can tell it is winter in Bangkok because the dogs are wrapped up in T-shirts and the locals break out their winter jackets, gloves and scarves for a few days. This never lasts long before the sun warms everything up, and the temperatures soar over the next several months. The passing of David Bowie aka Ziggy Stardust, and Glen Frey of the Eagles leaves us with countless memories of past decades. A Hash Legend in his own right,
HARRIER MAGAZINE EDITOR JIM EDENS
Johnny “Condom” Johnson also left us for that great Hash trail in the sky, where he’s probably sharing a Beerlao with his old friends Eddie “Kuntfoo” Chung Gon and Hans “The General” Kumpel, while reminiscing about their many good times together. Johnny Johnson’s memoirs of his life in Laos are a must read in this edition. Speaking of good times on trail, Gina Lolobrigida, aka Slut Machine ventured north to penetrate the all male bastion of the Puget Sound H3. How did the men of Seattle welcome her? Read her expose to discover the dirt on these guys’ shoes. It is not too early to make plans for Eurohash next year in Vienna. This city so rich in culture and history is located at the crossroads of the Ottoman and Roman empires. Follow in the footsteps of The Third Man along the Blue Danube for this Eurohash extravaganza. The mysteries of the Full Moon Hashes and the Hong Kong Friday Hash House Harriers are revealed in this edition. I hope you enjoy the February edition of Harrier Magazine and that I’ll see you on trail soon. On On, Jim Edens Editor-in-Chief & Founder Harrier Magazine - Fun on the run since 2002 International Edition with readers in 50 US states & 100 countries

ow that Interam 2015 is over and memories are fading like a dull hangover, Portland is on the map for traveling hashers. One thing that’s unique about Portland is that there are 12 kennels up north in and outside of Seattle, Washington.

One of those hashes is the Puget Sound H3. This is an all men’s group that runs on the first and third Saturday mornings during the Winter months -- and on first and third Thursday nights during the Summer months. These dedicated wankers are strict about bimbos “just showing up” to hash and it’s invitation only for any lady who likes all the attention on them. Well, that sounded a lot like a Slut to me. So, I emailed the GM “Just Can’t Get it Up” and with my reputation and credentials with Harrier Magazine I was formally invited.

History of the
Hong Kong Friday HHH CONTENTS
by Mark “Hopeless” Hope
S
ome of the best (hash) ideas are hatched in a bar after a run, some say.
So it was to be that the Hong Kong Friday H3 (HKFH3) came into existence. Sat in the hash bar of Hong Kong, The Queen Victoria, Hopeless and Thermal Dick considered life. “This Friday is the 29th February, we’ve no hash chapters in Hong Kong on a Friday, why not do a Leap Year Hash?” quipped Thermal Dick, sipping his 6th pint of Carlsberg. “Great idea, we only need to hare every four years, let’s do it!” replied Hopeless.
