GRATEFUL DICK WILL BE IN TOWN FOR THIS EVENT. Hopefully, the hash will have enough shiggy to draw blood on several hashers. Stinging nettles and poison ivy would be a nice bonus.

My offspring, 7 year old Grateful Spurt (Andy) will be with me for the parade and hash. He is looking forward to passing out jello shots.

On-On,
Grateful Dick

We set a new jello shot record last Friday: 1600 shots.
This was in preparation for the St. Patrick's Day parade the next afternoon. It took a lot of work, and that was on top of building the float for the parade. When I arrived the kitchen crew was hard at work, CA was loading the shots in the refrigerator, and P-rick was supervising.



There was a propane burner set up outside to boil water in a really big pot. Once the water was boiled Mama would mix in the jello and vodka, and then start filling the shot cups.



AI was anxiously observing as the refrigerator got fuller and fuller. We just kept packing them in. There were a lot of empty cheap vodka bottles on the counter. I don't know what the total vodka requirement was.



We finally finished about 11:00 pm. We had prepared 1600 shots for the next day's festivities. The fridge was packed about as full as it would go. And Plop was happy.

The St. Patricks's Day parade reached a new high this year.
We passed out nearly 1800 jello shots to the crowd (we had to save some for ourselves). I don't know the total hash attendance, but there were 50 people on the RSVP list. Plus Ocean Pig came. The first I knew about Ocean Pig was when he called me from the TriRail. He had met up with GratefulDick and MiGratefulDick's kid Andy, who were coming up to meet me and ride down to the parade together. Ocean Pig wanted to know if he could come too? I said sure, and picked them all up. Andy got to sit up front, GratefulDick and Ocean Pig were in the back. We stopped by my house to regroup, and so Ocean Pig could get a beer. Andy tried out the chopper project, and GratefulDick wore his hat.




Soon enough it was time to go. Oddly, Circumspector opted to take her own car and not ride with us. Good thing, too, since Glasshole called soon after we left, and asked for a ride. We picked him up and I made him sit in the back with Ocean Pig and GratefulDick. On our way out of Lake Worth I was checking out the hottie washing her car, when I realized it was the Head. I backed up, and she came over and talked to us for a minute. She didn't even throw the soapy water on us!



Only a few minutes further on we had to stop for gas and more beer. And Ocean Pig had to use the bathroom. If you look right in the center of the first photo you can see him facing the camera and doing his dirty little business. The cops checked us out pretty carefully as we got onto I-95, but didn't detain us.



Things were hopping once we got to the start of the hash. HalfLife was showing off his new teeth, and GH was bending over in preparation for something. Bootlicker was hanging on the float to stay vertical. We had to use a field expedient to get the inital "ON" on the foot, after finding that one of the feet had blown off on the 70 mph drive down. But eventually we all assembled for the money group shot.




The hash itself was uneventful, marked only by the eight phone calls from GratefulDick asking, "Where are you?". We were near the train tracks, he was on the train track, and all he had to do was go north. For some reason that was not possible. At least Circumspector got Plop's head painted.



After the hash we and the float made our way to the assembly point, where we stood around for 30 or 40 minutes waiting for some organization. We made good use of the time by passing out jello shots to everyone around us.





Pretty soon we were under way. We were behind a big ladder truck full of firemen, and in front of a police bagpipe band. What a perfect location for the hash! There were some exotic dancers in a car not too far behind. We saw DumpsterDiver in his Gumby costume along the parade route.



The circle went well. The center of attention was the office chair. It was very popular. Much beer was drunk.



We close with these shots of Princess trying to cool off. I think I like the first one best, but I just couldn't decide. So I present them all here for your perusal.
