Promises still held dear.

A love story . . .

The Envelope Please . . .

Kathryn is our winner!

To read the fascinating details
concerning the final outcome of our trivia challenge -
see the comments section of the previous post.

Note: Humuhumu nukunuku apua'a is pronounced
who ma who ma new ka new ka a pa wah a
(all the a's are the short "a" sound).

Trivia Question Continuation

It would appear that we are having a bit of difficulty
locating someone to define our mystery word.
So, we are lifting the restrictions of our challenge and
allowing the use of whatever means necessary
(i.e. dictionary, search engine)
to meet the challenge.

Now the question is:
Who will be the first to define -

humuhumunukunukuapuaa

Hint: It is not pronounced phonetically.


Ortegas are still restricted from participation.

Anyone ready for a nap?

Trivia Question

We are looking for someone who can define the following word
WITHOUT
the use of a dictionary or search engine.

humuhumunukunukuapuaa
(yes, it is all one word)

This challenge was inspired by a comment left on our last entry.
All Ortegas are restricted from participation in this challenge.

One More Try

It has come to our attention that there are actually a few folks out there that read our blog and are interested in a new post. Imagine our surprise! Why the surprise? Well, when you average one comment for every 10 posts, you begin to wonder. We figured, due to a lack of readership participation, the time and energy expended in keeping this blog going was in vain as our efforts were evidently being swallowed up in some super-cyber black hole. However, in appreciation for all our "silent" readers, we are going to give this one more try.
