Hashing History:
| Dr. Down-Down has been hashing since the late 1950s. He was the founding member of the Koala Lumpit HHH of Buln Buln Shire, Victoria, Australia, the “Mother-in-Law Hash.” At the time he was an American student studying abroad, a doctoral candidate at the Centre for Gippsland Studies at Monash University, preparing his thesis on the prevalance and popularity of wankage in the Australian female population. He was inspired to start the Mother in Law Hash after a long run through the outback, sucessfully escaping the enraged husband of one of his interviewees. Unfortunately, there is no record of the Mother-in-Law Hash, and we have only his word for this. |
How He Got His Name:
| Actually, Dr. Down-Down is his real name: Alfred J. Down-Down, PhD, to be precise. The rumor that he got his name after going down on Mother Teresa – twice in one night – has not been substantiated. |
Where He’s Hashed:
| Australia. A few times in Tucson, Arizona, although locals seem to have no recollection of him. A friend of a friend of a hasher who knows Pussy Galore, founder of the Tampa HHH in Florida, says PG told him Dr. Down-Down once showed up at on-afters but skipped trail entirely. |
Claim to Hashing Fame:
| After researching and reporting on Australian female sexuality in the 1950s, Dr. Down-Down went on to write the infamous Down-Down Report, his seminal 1964 study of the sexual habits of male and female hashers. Since there were only 273 hashers in the world at that time – 234 harriers and 39 harriettes – he was able to accurately map the sexual histories and preferences the entire hashing population, thus authoring the definitive sexology of Hash House Harriers. His most disturbing finding, that harriettes would much prefer to be able to pee standing up, resulted in universal controversy, scattered book-burning, a brief flirtation with fame (see below), and a Nobel Prize (later withdrawn). After his brush with notoriety, Dr. Down-Down moved in 1965 to Tucson, Arizona, where he opened the Holistic Healing Hospice. The HHH is a center for sexual therapy, attracting disfunctional hashers from around the world. Dr. Down-Down is assisted by Nurse Wretched, Piss Boy Flying Booger, and Chargirl Sally, a one-legged orphan girl from Bosnia. The doctor began writing his popular Ask Dr. Down-Down advice column in 1993. |
Real Life:
| Dr. Down-Down doesn’t have much of a life outside of the hospice, frankly. But he does have a number of, um, interesting hobbies, including squicking, coprophagia, coprophilia, inbreeding, outbreeding, crossbreeding, pedophilia, pyrophilia, zoophilia, exhibitionism, voyeurism, transvestitism, fetishism, urolagnia, mild sadism, frotteurism, gerontophilia (hence the stories about Mother Teresa), and square dancing. Oh, and hashing. |
