Re: Finding HawaiiThreads.com

I was looking for something about Hawaii on Google (I forget what) and it led me here.

Dumb me. I thought this thread was about someone having TROUBLE finding HT, and never read it. So, I chime in. I was researching the word haole on google, and found a MOST interesting thread on haole portuguese (NOT!) because earlier in the day there was a conflict where some portuguese were calling me 'haole.'

(There's a phrase: 'Hawaiian at heart' - for some people <you know who> we need the phrase 'Haole at heart.')

Sorry this took only 3 years......

BTW: I realize I should have capitalized Portuguese..... sorry - leaving it for effect - but do we capitalize haole? Haole?
Maybe we should capitalize Local, as well? Kama`aina?

I was using search engines to explore the history of Hualalai snow events.

Re: Finding HawaiiThreads.com

I believe I was looking on a search engine for links that would reveal stories or tales of mainland people who eventually find that they have no choice but to move back to the mainland for one reason or other.

I have only visited Oahu and Kauai on four occasions-- the last time being over a year ago when the prices were fairly enticing. The last previous to that was 3 years earlier. I'm glad I got the chances when I did.

Re: Finding HawaiiThreads.com

I found this site while reading the Star Bulletin online. There was an article about the site, and I thought that I'd check it out.

I'm self employed and REALLY behind on work, but can't help but check in every now and then to get acquainted with the forums.

I'm new to forums =/.

I found it after reading Blaine's article in Star Bulletin after the 1st MWH Slippah party. I joined the same day, which was about mid December of 2005. Wow - long time ago! But it's sure been fun (well, most of the time)

I Googled something about 'okina one day and found a thread on the topic here on HT. Coincidentally, a friend of mine posted in that thread.

Hey, dbl_dbl. Why do I think of coffee from a Canadian donut shop chain when I see your name? (The Canadians who post here will understand.)

Re: Finding HawaiiThreads.com

Started by searching information on Daiei through search engines, and found this site via Hawaii's section at the Metroblogging website. I think the blogger on Metroblogging is an active participant on the HT site.

I found this on the web from doing a search on the Grammy Awards in the Hawaiian music category, I think.
