Bear, haoli25 is "Happy 25" in Hawaiian. I guess you missed the three page long post he issued reguarding this. Come on my friend, don't forget your medication. Keep up here you old pirate.

Geez, I guess I missed my meds! I need some raw salmon!! Next thing you know I'll be seeing "colours" and be on a different "programme".

Haoli and Haole have pretty different meanings, huh?

Sorry, Bill, forget I asked! Just "oldtimers" catching up!!

Oh yeah...
Haoli is 'Happy'
Haole is 'Foreigner' Or commonly used as 'White Man / Mainland American'.

I knew what haole is and it's usually a purgorative term if I'm not mistaken! Kind of like "Gringo" in Spanish! :cheer:

[AndyT]

Yep. Just like that.

Chris,

That is probably the only time anyone has said I'm 'deep'.
Karma pour vous..

@ AcousticAL
"Karma pour vous"
Merci viel mals... (the Swiss have a charming mix of French and German in their own language) Al. I'm good at sussing out the hidden traits! Glad to see you loose track of some of the discussions for a while too!

Sorry to say that my explanation for my username's a bit boring really

My names Joe, and when people meet me the first thing they say is..hey..joe

When they learn I'm a guitar player they say sgain...hey..joe, so I had to learn to play it, which was fun!

Before anyone asks, no I don't own a gun, and I haven't shot anyone..honest.

Pretty easy for me. When I was kid my mom would send me to the barber the day after school let out for the summer. I would get my head practically shaved. After the first time my brothers said I looked like a bald eagle. Well fast forward 40 years and they still call me eagle, but at least they dropped the bald part and thank God I still have hair. The 670 is just something that aol added to it when I first setup my email account.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for sharing this stuff. It is very cool and a lot of fun. You never know what is going to stick with you in life, so the screen names are a good bit of history on each other sometimes....
