Re: Where'd You Get Your HawaiiThreads Name?

so my name became "original prophet,"

Besides, we've already got a prophet on HT, and since he owns the board, that makes him the original ... pzarquon! (P = Prophet, "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galazy" reference.)

Fukumoto...Enomoto...Fujimoto...Iwamoto...Morimoto ...Okimoto...Tsukemoto....Kanemoto...Motorola

You still nevah wen' guess his name. I know, but I not going tell.

Speaking of cellphones and Japanese names, I bet most people think Nokia is a Japanese brand. At least I thought so. It sure SOUNDS Japanese. Come to find out, Nokia started in Finland in 1865 as a foresting enterprise and paper manufacturer.

Remember Aloha-Motos ... on, what, Kapiolani, right?

(Yes, it was Aloha Motors ... but you hear the local-kine pronunciation, yeah?)

A long time ago, there was a Hilo restaurant located on the bayfront area called MOTO INN. It was washed away in the 1960 tsunami.

Kaipo is my middle name, but it's what my family and friends call me back home. Here in the states I'm stuck going by my mundane first name....

Re: Where'd You Get Your HawaiiThreads Name?

I have had my nick for years since 95 when I first got internet.
People said I was an icy B***H and I have blue eyes. It began blueicicle, then evolved to blueyeicle...pretty basic. Then found HT and kept it because no one else had it!
