QrizB said:ed110220 said:Thanks for relenting! But I still don't know what a Hawaii is.The definition of "O" is given in Oscargrouch's signature. Multiples of Os are named (foeum stalwarts please correct me if I've got this wrong):
- Not named? (I'd go with Odin, since he only has one eye.)
- Bond (double-O)
- Typhooo
- Wink (forty winks)
- Hawaii (for the TV show Hawaii Five-O)
- Maiden (as in cricket, an over [six balls] with no runs scored)
- Heaven (seventh heaven)
- Never (as Oscar's system is never going to make eight Os)
