Wit Hall of Fame

One of the cool features of HAZ is long gone. The fill in the blank for Bio: was flipped to "Tell us what you're all about" on the registration form. The contrast into the final page was rather humorous and enjoyable to read through profiles. Most would start off with "I'm all about ____ ____ ____" generally to the tune of "I'm all about hiking steep mountains" or "I'm all about getting in touch with nature". It simply made the answers find the interesting aspect of each. This isn't what this topic is technically about, I just threw it in there to remind myself to get that fixed back to the way it was...

Hall of Fame Wit is in reference to the one-liner description for a hike. It's featured on every hike at the top of the text stating "___ ___ ___" by Author

About 90% of the hikes posted have this field entered if not I ad lib ;-)

I think Fritzski's remake of my Barnhardt description has long stood as a role model with the title of "Thick juicy steak for hungry thighs!". Some may accurately describe the euphoria or terror of a hike. When the arrangement of words precisely paints an unmistakably intriguing or daunting vision it's at that point one enters the "Wit Hall of Fame" :)

Without further ado, I think king nickfraley junior the third has found true wit with Come Bleed on the Cleaver! for Peak 4910. Wow, I seriously rolled over on that one!

any others out there peeking interest?

Nice! I'm pretty sure none of mine qualify for wittiness :? . I have seen some good ones, but I can't recall where.
