AMT Pacemakers Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 Under Glass This forum is for posting finished (pau) models in all their glory, just like a display case! What does pau mean? Its been bugging me from day one Robert
Harry P. Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 Yep. "Pau" means "finished" in Hawaiian. Aren't you going to ask what "ohana" means???
Greg Cullinan Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 Me too,always wondered that meself,while we're at it... How about PAPAFO?

george 53 Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 Ohana means "Family". Or at least that wat it says on the label of Faygo's "Ohana Punch" Good stuff, too!
Kaleb Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 Mahalo pilialoha for answering I was wondering what Pau meant as well.
MikeMc Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) I would guess that PAPAFO is the name Rick is called by kids / grandkids....... Always makes me think of Milwaukee's own "MOFOCO"....its a VW shop Wickapedia said : Pau, a type of steamed bun from China http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pau Edited June 4, 2010 by MikeMc

High octane Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 If Gregg wants to use the language of his island, he should print out a glossary of words for us "Mainlanders" so that we understand what he is saying.
Nick Notarangelo Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 so in other words Gregg need to post a online dictionary of the Hawaiin tearms for us mainlanders or is he doing his own version of the new cbs tv show "Stuff that my dad says" or more like "Stuff that Gregg Says"

Greg Cullinan Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 Papa Forrester did cross my mind. I thought maybe something Star Trekish.. What was the saying? Peace and prosperity...

I like this idea, too! Pin it in the general section or something.
Wagoneer81 Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 So, do residents of Honolulu still use "Ewa" in reference to "West, and "Waikiki" for "East"? As in "Go Ewa from here?"
