According to my sitemeter, something truly amazing, sensational, tremendous, fantastic, mind-boggling, and stupendous has occured. I am in an exclusive club now, having reached the level of 200 total visits to this blog. So, what prize do I get for achieving this? Will a celebrity arrive at my house to present me a big fat check? Or at least give me a gift certificate to some place or another?. Nah, I doubt it..Its just another milestone to be commemorated, mostly inside my mind...Oh well, I guess I should thank everyone for stopping by, I couldn't have done it without your being curious to see whats going on here..So, THANKS EVERYONE:)
Oh, here's another bit of trivia for you..
HUNKY DORY
Meaning: To be okay, everything is good.
Example: As long as mom is happy, eveything is just honky dory.
Origin: Huncho-dori was a major street in Yokohama that was frequented by American sailors on leave during W.W.I. To be in Huncho-dori was to be enjoying leisure activities, and having a good time.
Alternatively,t The archaic English word "hunk" meant "goal" and is probably derived from the Dutch "honk" also meaning "goal". To have reached one's goal is to be satisfied and happy.
Now ya know!
