Dont wait till its too late to care

Came across this MTV in you tube. The story behind it reminds me of a quote I read a long time ago

The greatest weakness of most humans is their hesitancy to tell others how much they love them while they're still alive.

Orlando A. Battista

Think its so true ... remember to wake up each morning and tell the ones you love "I love you" dont wait until they are gone to do it.

and hey to the person who is reading this ... "I LOVE YOU"

Haika - Its driving me nuts!

I was playing scrabble with a friend today and I was fooling around with my tiles and finally came up with a word that the computer accepted - Haika. I didnt know the meaning but it was worth 24 points as a starting word. So I played it.





I started thinking ... Haika a really beautiful sounding word, in fact it sounded Asian most likely Japanese. I got really curious about it and went to dictionary.com to do a check on the meaning. Guess what ... it was not to be found. No such word. I then googled on the word and guess what ... haika is not to be found anywhere except name of some famous person and a website for rubber stamps.

I then went to sites like http://www.morewords.com/ and http://www.chambersharrap.co.uk/ and both showed that its an allowable word in scrabble (US). However, in the link above http://www.chambersharrap.co.uk/ where there is a dictionary - it returned "Sorry, no entries for haika were found."

I guess I stumbled upon an allowable english word - HAIKA which has no meaning.

Since it has no meaning ... I shall give it a meaning myself -

Haika : To cause confusion in the english language. To drive someone nuts

Oh ... if you know the true meaning of the word ... leave me a comment. Its making me haika.
