Run #478 Hole? Who Said Hole?
Many
Gypsies will go any length looking for a good hole -- or a
good pole, for that matter. Hare Boulder Holder magnanimously
satisfied at least one of those urges, starting her trail on the
outskirts of the former Letterman Hospital. Now little more than a
deep cleft in the earth, the construction site was surrounded by
heaps of sand irresistible to Just Doesn't Get It and Rhett
Butthole, who went pile diving with more enthusiasm than they
have ever managed with real women, and who are now known as the
Buttsore Surfers. The sad loss of the parking lot where so much
Gypsies revelry has taken place brought tears to the eyes of
D'Anglin Anglin, who realized he'd never again be lost there
on trail. Even Tongueless was seen blinking frequently; though
he claimed to be revolted by recalling the time Snakeless showed off
his wrinkled but uncut root for the ladies (producing spectacular and
repeated hurling by Spanky), it was clear he was fondly recalling
Better Than Silicone's victory in the women's grand circular piss-off
and his own efforts to improve community relations with the sale of a
few Gypsies T-shirts to an officer of the law. Visitor Mossy
Patch insisted on showing her secular side -- and it's far from
her best -- in declining to read from the Sacred Missal,
despite the encouragement of Pump Fake and Just Jim,
who kept urging her to "speak in tongues" as they enacted
some of the tome's more spiritual liturgies. The task instead fell to
Fucking Pesto Chicken, making his farewell tour before
departing in a peyote haze for Santa Fe. Pesto's impassioned
reading stirred unfamiliar feelings in the hearts and loins of many
present; Thurston Bowel the Turd immediately recognized the
sensation from the last time he offered candy to a Catholic
schoolgirl. By contrast, Beats Me and Open Wide found
the experience so depressing they disappeared with Phone Sex
for a girl's night out that brought a smile to more lips than three.
The sheer sense of desolation -- one not witnessed since Likes to
Lick last pondered his Cisco stock options and the Grim
Rimmer his love life -- could not keep the pack down for long.
The hare warned of thorns, difficult ground and nasty, sharp thorns,
but was roundly ignored and the pack was off, led by Naked Hasher
and No Hands. Manhandler was but a few steps behind,
sensing an opportunity too good to pass up. Boulder Holder
was soon redeemed when the first beer check materialized no more than
ten minutes from the start, producing a shoving match between Tits
4 Hire and Scarlett O'Hairy over who would get the first
longdick, er, longneck. Jethro Up deemed the local Sierra
Nevada "too bitter" for his Texan tastebuds and was
rewarded with a faceful of fumes from Bigfoot, who reasoned if
the visitor couldn't drink the beer he'd better just breathe it.
Trail resumed, though the pack's vigilance had waned to the point
that no one witnessed 5150 running off after a Presidio police
cruiser, mumbling something about a rematch. A second beer check
materialized, prompting Dipshit to complain that he wasn't
getting enough exercise. Drill Me obligingly snapped
the muzzle off Bite Size and the hasher was soon a fast-moving
speck set against the Sausalito skyline. Eager for the Sacred
Bucket, the pack stumbled on in, and soon enough alcohol was
sloshing around that even Whine and Chowder visitors Gumballs
and Tiny Limb were pawing one another and drooling with the
best of them. Too virtuous for such shenanigans, Shithead
headed home to make sure his porn collection didn't get lonely. Splat
waved goodbye and returned to explaining the Doppler red-shift to
Dick Chick, who was soon fantasizing about some red-shifting
of her own. Enter the Gerbil, arriving late in a rented
banana-yellow truck, proceeded to throw it into four-wheel drive and
plunged into the depths of the excavation, where the keen-eared Bag
Lady swore she later heard satanic laughter miles beneath the
earth. King Rongjon took up his sword and, having abandoned
the wagon for other modes of transportation, proceeded to punch his
own ticket to ride as he feted Boulder Holder with a poetic
disquisition on her ethereal grace. The harriette giggled and cooed
as Rongjon paid her iambic homage, then lodged a delicate but
forceful forefinger into his chest and stepped aside as our monarch
plummeted head-first toward the earth. Only the quick intervention of
Dr. Kimble saved Rongjon from taking the Sacred
Bucket with him. Fits In stepped in to take custody,
ensuring that Jack the Ripper and virgin Just John received
enough libation to keep their long, smoldering staring contest going
long into the night. As the Bucket ran dry and the beer ran
low, the pack adjourned for the Final Final, where the booze ran
until Nutless Sac trudged off to sleep in his car and Scabass
Faggott and Handjob for Humanity collapsed in a heap, the
closest anyone could remember seeing them for some time. On on.
