Just in case any other DRs might be interested in going down their own - or even another's - HHW Memory Lane via Google:

Search for:
"haines his way"
"your name" - at least how you "signed" your posts

For myself, I entered: Haines His Way "Jose C. Simbulan" (I was not "JoseSPiano" on the "brown board")

When the search results come up, you'll probably get a lot of them, and/or have to click on "show more results from haineshisway.com"

Since the Notes are archived consecutively, just start looking for the smallest/earliest number in the URLs that come up. They will look like this:
www.haineshisway.com/archives/00000618.html
www.haineshisway.com/archives/00000304.html
www.haineshisway.com/archives/00000600.html

etc., etc., etc.

You can also enter a word or topic that you remember in the search query too.

*There probably is someway to do a search in Google using various parameters to find the earliest mention, but... ???

How do you find out when you first posted at this site?  MY profile says october 21,2003, but that was the first post on this new site.  Is there any way to go back in time farther than this?

First post on this board (as dorky as ever):

Good Lord!  Will there be graduate studies available in HHW posting?  It all looks so wonderful.  If we just had a Joe Allen's and a 7-11, we could all live here forever.  Maybe I shouldn't be trying to figure all this out while I am on Vicadin.

If I could live anywhere, it would have to be Manhattan.  There is no other place like it on earth.

Something from my childhood:  All those damn original baseball and football cards I had  and later threw away.


DR TCB - Ask and ye shall receive:

The Date: May 26, 2003
The Title of the Notes: "Pheasant Under Glass"
The Topic of the Day: "If you could go back in a time machine and rub elbows and sup with anyone of your choice, who would it be and why? I’ll be back in a bit after I figure out how to eat pheasant under glass."

]


Thank you, Jose.  Amazing how I manage to get the Titanic in to just about every topic under discussion.

Hmm, perhaps I could organize a Walking Titanic Tour of New York?  Or perhaps the North Atlantic?

Re:  Last night's THE AMAZIN' RACE

SPOILER WARNINGS SPOILER WARNINGS SPOILER WARNINGS SPOILER WARNINGS SPOILER WARNINGS

Wow--this has really been a weird season elimination-wise, ain't it?  First we had the Uber Yoga couple, who didn't get to race at all, then Zev and Justin who come in first but lost a passport, then last week a team is gone because one of them wouldn't complete a challenge and then this week with the Poker Gals who couldn't complete a challenge.  Any of these happenstances could have occurred in any of the previous races, but to have them all happen in the same season is just odd.

I did find myself sorry to see the Poker Gals go--they were entertaining and aside from lying about being social workers, they were never really villains.  But we are into the final weeks and teams must go.

My biggest laugh last night was when one of the Globetrotters said "If I never learned any names of the other team members, the one I would know is "BRIAN!" 


It has been a weird season. There were a couple of things that bugged me about last night's show. I wonder if any of the women could have hit that bell. It bothered me that the men could do it so easily. It seemed very unfair for an all-women team. There should have been a rule about allowing them after a certain time to get help. I was wondering if they both could have banged down together??

It was also weird last night that two teams had so much trouble. I do think the poker players would have been able to do the dance. And if their gay boyfriends had been with them at the dancing thing i think one of them would have helped with the bell.

I thought the poker players were fun. They were not good racers, except that they were quite smart. So they were good at mental tasks. I am not sure if i like miss america and hubby. I do like that she did not give up. But she seems fairly intelligent. How is it that every team could count the bells but her? I was very impressed with her husband. He was very patient and loving with her. I really liked that.

I agree with DR Jane re: karma

It's similar to the vibes we now send people. 

It is meaningful to give people vibes and karma.  To me the way it got out of hand was when people started being nasty and taking away people's karma.

I found HHW in June (I think) of 2002.  I was a fan of BK's on his former label and eventually found this "shimmering, glowing star in the [Internet] firmament." ;)

I found my very first post and it's from July (not June) 2002:

Quote
Hello All,

I know it's late in the evening (do I get a prize for being the last post of the evening?), but this is my very first posting on this website: I am a chronic lurker and parenthetical user (I'm getting professional help). I would like to put in my two cents about the male and female non-theatrical singers...for no other reason than just because. I have been in love with the five singers of The Manhattan Transfer. Tim Hauser, Alan Paul, Janis Siegel (my favorite of the bunch), Laurel Masse (original member, left the group in 1979) and Cheryl Bentyne (in the group since 1979). Individually they each have a wonderful sense of musicianship and style, but put them together and watch out! Incredible singing. That's my two cents.

The CDs that I've been listening to lately: Elaine Stritch At Liberty (love it - listened to it twice in one day) and Thoroughly Modern Millie (like it - twice in one week).

Well, until the next time.

PS. I would like to personally thank Mr. Kimmel (and/or Mr. Bakalor) for knowing how to correctly spell "a lot," (or for at least knowing how to use a spellchecker). A website with which Mr. Kimmel is no longer affiliated, no longer spells it correctly and even the incorrect spellings aren't consistent. I've seen "allot" and "alot" a lot.

I haven't found my very first post but I know it was sometime in the summer of 2002 because I'm finding posts from June of that year.

And now I'm going home to a mild dinner. I must buy some jello that is not red also. I looked yesterday and all the jello is either grape, strawberry or raspberry.

I was hoping maybe one of the other teams would have come across the Poker Gals at the Hammer Bell to show them that it can be done without a lot of arm strength.  What they needed to do was let the mallet do the work.  They could have given the mallet a wide enough swing to gain momentum and then hit the striker.  I have seen little kids do this at carnivals.

Miss America and BRIAN! looked to me like they were suffering from exhaustion all day--he with the car, she with the bells, both of them missing the bicycles.  Maybe they didn't get any sleep during the red-eye from Dubai.
