For Those Who Still Reading Anyways....
By Braddah Lance
Sorry for the sporadic and "off time" posts but I really guess I'm getting "old".
Baseball season has started, I started exercising (training) again (no fo'get, da 'No Scade 'Em Go Get 'Em Weight Loss Challenge has started!) and I stay trying a Cesar Milan (Dog Whisperer) thing with our dogs...
So dat means by da time I get home all I get fo' do is eat, shower, little stuff around da house and I'm out by 10pm - recently it's been like 8:30pm.
Seriously, even da dishes have taken a back seat and we got a double bin sink dat's been full for a few days dat I haven't gotten a chance to do.
Waking up at 5am every morning to get ready for work doing da dog things is exhausting in itself and on top of dat it only gets worse since Da Wife is hapai, I gotta pick up da slack for make things easier for her and help her [us] out.
So sad, too bad - dat's life eh, Suck It Up! No ask me how we going survive once da keiki stay come.... but something had to give in da mean time and unfortunately da WWD! blog has taken a hit.
I know I know, no mo' da "fun" kine mo'olelo's recently and from Da Hui posts alone, it seems like we lost more than a handful of readers. I do have a few good WWD! posts waiting in da wings but it kinda falls back to da "merger" of da papahs too cause we don't know wea da blogs will stand and/or if we'll still be around.
Wassap Wit Dat! yeah?
I guess I bettah buss' 'em out before no can eh?
Well stay tuned for next week's ones and I'll try to earn your readership back... if you still stay checking WWD! out.
btw, I got TWO tickets to the Magic Island Family Festival starting today through Sunday. The tickets are for the unlimited ride wristbands but there are time restrictions for their use.
Thursday March 25 5-10pm
Friday - No can
Saturday March 27 10am-4pm
Sunday March 28 5-10pm
So hea's how you scorah 'em. Since da baby no mo' name.... let's play da name game buuuut we don't know da sex yet buuuut da name Da Wife and I have tentively picked out is sorta a unisex name so dat's your (only) clue.
If nobody guess 'em..... post numbah 77 wins 'em..... if get dat high..... if not, whoevah wants 'em will get 'em.
Oh yeah, E Komo Mai to WWD! dachad! I didn't get a chance to reply to anybody da past few days so there's a shout out to you and hopefully you'll stick around to post more.
Shoots!
k-den




Wassup Wit Dat!

... not sure if I can go but I going try guess anyway ... multiple times if you don't mind ...
... Alex??? ...
... Corey??? ...
... Have a Good One Everyone!!! ...
March 25th, 2010 at 10:05 am
Tyler???
March 25th, 2010 at 10:06 am
Shay???
Robin???
March 25th, 2010 at 10:08 am

March 25th, 2010 at 10:12 am

March 25th, 2010 at 10:14 am
Hey BL, we're still here!
K, da keiki's name. Unisex, hmmm, I get unisex name IRL. Was kinda traumatic the first time I met a boy with my name. I was very upset. Maybe that's why I got so many odda names. ha!
Casey? Kacie?
March 25th, 2010 at 10:15 am
btw, you guud husband so will be a guud daddy. No worry about how you going handle, you just do. It just happens. And it'll be fun.
Bags under da eyes is a sign of "right of passage".
ok, I made that one up, but we accept all excuses we can get.
March 25th, 2010 at 10:23 am
I don't want the tickets but still thought I'd try and guess
Jamie
Hayden
Dana
Jordan
Cameron
Bailey
March 25th, 2010 at 10:24 am
@snow - my first thought was Taylor too
March 25th, 2010 at 10:36 am
unisex name? Chris?
Sally makes a good point. My son has a unisex name but we never thought it was at the time and later we notice that girls were named that too, in da minority though.
You busy man so no worry about keeping up with the Joneses, gotta get your priorities right. ....drop baseball, you coached long enough, let someone else volunteer. Coach your kid when old enough to play...girls play baseball too, right?
March 25th, 2010 at 10:36 am
Still read your blog everyday but nothing worthy to say all the time.
How about...Peyton or Kameron?
I like Uee.....
March 25th, 2010 at 10:37 am
How about Jordan?
March 25th, 2010 at 10:38 am
Cassidy....
March 25th, 2010 at 10:38 am
Jindo!! That's a Korean dog breed.
March 25th, 2010 at 10:46 am
Taylor is a great name. We have a boy patient named Taylor and a girl patient too. Both great teenagers!
That's for inspiration Lance.
Remember, the name has to flowwwww. Make sure you say the name AND the last name at the same time.
Taylor Kwon. Has a "ring". Sounds like a movie star. Or a musician.
March 25th, 2010 at 11:07 am
Here!
How's 'bout Kevin. Yup, I know a girl named Kevin.
And a boy named Dream.
March 25th, 2010 at 11:22 am
We here! We here! No worries, the blog should take a backseat but we are still here. I love Cesar Milan! He is so so cool! Good psychology for people too! Love it!
Well, uni-sex name kinda hard. My girls have what used to be boy names ( Mackenzie and Kelsey) so had to make sure my boy had a really "boy" name. Jason. I am of the opinion that once the girls take over a name no can use for boy no mo. ( practicing my little bit pidgin eh?) Boys don't seem to like it when girls have the same name as them.
Also that wasn't a very helpful hint... unisex in what language? :>) Going with Da Clown only "seven" in Spanish maybe "siete"....
Glad you were just busy BL and everything is "ok". You are a good man to help Da Wife!
March 25th, 2010 at 11:31 am
No worries BL, you got your priorities.. we understand!! As long as you still have a blog and still check in, we be hea!
I was thinking the same as skycastles: Bailey.. I have friends with Bailey boys and girls!
March 25th, 2010 at 11:34 am
I went to school with a girl named Kyle. She was soooo pretty!
March 25th, 2010 at 11:57 am
BL - Take it one day at a time... Don't need tickets, but my entry is Jodie.
March 25th, 2010 at 12:15 pm
WOW! Some really great names there! Making me tink about changing my "vote"...... but Da Wife is pretty hard head.... especially wit da hormones and all.
But nobody got 'em yet........
Hmmm..... you surah not a C-O-N-spiracy?
Too bad I can't stop time.
..............................................
..............................................
Da Wife didn't go for it either.
Not even just da numbah "7".
I was trying to convince her dat we would have had da only infant da can sign his/her own name! 
.............................................
.............................................
I know dat.
But does it have to happen at da same time?!
................................................
................................................
Rogah dat.
..................................................
..................................................
..............................................
..............................................
Hey anoddah "m"! E Komo Mai to WWD! m! Glad you drop by..... and Tanner is a nice name.
................................................
................................................
East Coast represent!
I'll be saying those exact words by da end of da year.
..............................................
..............................................
I know you hea too!
How 'bout not.
Yeah, shmall kine "weird" times too but it's free.
................................................
................................................
I had a dog named Alex.......
Not bad.
Uh... no.
I wouldn't know.... but I did have a classmate named Yun Ha..... and believe it or not da last name was Kwon too!
.................................................
.................................................
Wat about expanded waist? Does dat count?
...................................................
...................................................
.................................................
.................................................
Ok.... wat if da name we were tinking of changing was a boys name but latah more popularized by girls or vice versa?
As long as they don't cry.
..............................................
..............................................
Have you noticed dat I don't have anything worthy to say too?
Is dat a real name?
I would then have to change my dog's name to Sundance.
..................................................
..................................................
So you want me to name my kid a dog?
..............................................
..............................................
Please don't tell me they're from da same ohana.
Rogah dat!
It does.
..................................................
..................................................
Parent's on something?
.................................................
.................................................
Yeah it does and he is unreal! Sometimes I tink it's BS but he's just one of those kines of people dat just has a natural gift.
Those are cute girls name and yeah, dat's one real "boy" name.
Everything is "ok" for now..... just gotta hope I have a job in da next couple of months is all.
.................................................
.................................................
Wat if I had a talk show?
Know a dog named Bailey....... pass.
................................................
................................................
If she pretty..... I'll call her watevah she like!
March 25th, 2010 at 12:33 pm
Morgan?
Leslie?
BL, gotta make sure the initials not too embarassing. My impending step-granddaughter's initials are gonna be . . .
SIN.
F'real. And beware of any likely nicknames too.
My parents both have unisex names, and my dad hates his.
March 25th, 2010 at 12:43 pm
my first guess would have been Jordan but since that's already taken i'll go with Madison. although i only know of one male Madison and it was on a tv show.
March 25th, 2010 at 12:57 pm
Aloha BL,
How about Shaun maybe Layne?
March 25th, 2010 at 1:01 pm
Shirley. Shirley not. ha ha!
Talk show yeah!! I would listen/watch. Then I could practice my accent! :>)
March 25th, 2010 at 1:09 pm
Digging deep into my Jedi dictionary. BL, how about Obi-Wan Kenobi for a first or middle name? You can drop the dash and Kenobi. Obi Wan Kwon sounds Korean, but yet high tech enough.
March 25th, 2010 at 1:16 pm
I'm still reading Lance. Tracy, Kelly, Kyle, Lane, Shaun?
Take care of yourself and your wife first. Your readers will wait to read your column when you can post.
March 25th, 2010 at 1:19 pm
How about: Heine fo girl and Heine-Ken fo boy...........now I thirsty!
March 25th, 2010 at 1:25 pm
How about Rylie?
BTW, thought of naming my second kid "Obi-Wan" but turned out to be a girl so we named her Leia.
March 25th, 2010 at 1:28 pm
i think you know too many dogs with human names! WWD?!
i'll guess again... michelle (yes, i know a guy with this name... oh, but he's french!) or alex.
don't worry, once your baby is born (and even before), you'd be surprized how quickly the important things in life come into perspective.
March 25th, 2010 at 1:48 pm
ooh! ooh! i know! it's Jerry!
or Jeri
or Gerry
or Geri
March 25th, 2010 at 1:50 pm

One day at a time sounds good.
................................................
................................................
All I tink of is da dude on da tv show 'Chuck'.
Believe it or not.... we've thought of dat too!
Hmmm, da name we have in mind doesn't have any nicknames.... I tink.
But didn't he change his name to 'Dad'?
...............................................
...............................................
Madison huh? Haven't heard dat name oddah than Madison Square Garden.
................................................
................................................
Shaun Kwon? Did you even try to say dat out loud?
LMAO
................................................
................................................
.................................................
.................................................
I have a feeling you're serious about dat and if I was a full on Star Wars fan.... maaaaaybe. Da names does sound kinda cool but full on f.o.b.
.................................................
.................................................
................................................
................................................
................................................
................................................
You serious? Really? Do you put her hair up in da Cinnabon curl too?
...............................................
...............................................
Oh heeeeck no, I no like my kid grow up wit all kine complex's..... cause we no can afford da treatment.
I'm just waiting for da planets to realign and give us 30 hours in a day.
................................................
................................................
.................................................
.................................................
Did you know dat all three of those names are names of City's?
I like Jess[i]e.... but my speech impediment would prevent me from pronouncing my own kid's name properly.
Really.
March 25th, 2010 at 3:25 pm
you have a speech impediment? I thought it was called an "accent" :>) I didn't know Lindsey and Ashley were cities. What no bites on Shirley?! Danny (i) Johnny (i) Bobby (i) somehow I am getting the feeling this isn't the direction you were going.......
March 25th, 2010 at 3:31 pm
How about Peyton, Jaden or Angel?
March 25th, 2010 at 3:42 pm

I KNOW your babies future already as it came to me on my second sip of coffee. He/she will end up a Doctor of Optometry such that the "D.O." abbreviation shall follow him/her for the rest of his/her life. (Ho, I tired writing he/she....him/her....auready)
You shall name your prodigy "Tae"......a rather unique "unisex" name.
And so shall it be.
OL.......wondering if BL going figgah um out

Bruddah Lance....Uee is the name of one of the singers in the Korean girl band "After School"

March 26th, 2010 at 7:45 am
BL~
We're here!!! You can be sure of that.
I don't have any original unisex names...all the ones I thought of have been mentioned in earlier posts...
Agree with Sally (#25) - Taylor Kwon has a nice ring and flows nicely. Jordan flows nicely too.
I'm sure you already know this, but since your last name is only one syllable, the first name should be at least two syllables.
And then there's the middle name(s)...we ended up asking our respective parents to each come up with a middle name for our daughter...but the two middle names (one Chinese, one Japanese) sure add a lot of characters to her name...
March 26th, 2010 at 8:08 am
Jun/June?
Don/Dawn?
Jackie/Jacky
Dane/Dayne
March 26th, 2010 at 8:24 am
Hey B/L,
Just checking in. No worries…I’m still alive and have been living off the coast of Borneo. No but seriously, I’ve been slammed with triple choke work and things are finally getting back to normal. A two week project turned into several months…I’m sure you know how that goes.
So what’s been happening? Let see…HA/SB merge. New UH Men’s Basketball Coach...Da Wife is hapai….Say What? Ho, Congrats Braddahs! That trip to the Pacific NW was something else. Give my best to Da Wife and make sure you make her comfortable. I’ve been through this three times and I have tremendous respect for all the mothers out there. I know you’ll be a great dad. Hang in there and get lots of sleep.

March 25th, 2010 at 2:33 pm edit

.................................................
.................................................
Uh, it be weird to name my own keiki aftah an ex.
.................................................
.................................................
Too many of those....
................................................
................................................
E Komo Mai to WWD! Menosabe! Mahalos for dropping in!
Emerson sounds really..... proper.
................................................
................................................
It's obvious you don't know Da Wife. I do appreciate your meaningful outlook but Da Wife and I are doing fine.
..............................................
..............................................
Negative on all.
...............................................
...............................................
Nope, it's too early and it's a Friday..... there shouldn't be any reason to tink today.
...............................................
...............................................
Ooooh...... but a name wit only vowels?
................................................
................................................
I'm kinda getting used to it.
Excellent advice! Mahalos.
Oh boy.... now DAT is a whole new can of worms. Das why ours going be simple and we not going have any ethnic middle name, going be....... (first name) 7 Kwon. Still debating if 7 should be spelled out or not..... but Da Wife doesn't know.
...............................................
...............................................
Negative.
..................................................
..................................................
Like da back of my hand.
Yeah, wen you can squeeze something da size of a watermelon out da opening da size of a lemon...... yeah, dat's something not to mess wit.
Wat's dat? Sleep?
March 26th, 2010 at 8:35 am
ha ha ha
There were surah a ton of names thrown out there but sorry to say none of them were it.
Soooo, I'd hate for the two tickets to go to waste so whoevah wants 'em....... let me know.
March 26th, 2010 at 8:36 am
BL…Here’s my 2 cents on the name game…
I like Rod’s suggestion (#44) but I thought I would expound on it since we are both Niner fans.
“Pat-rick (or Pat-ricia) Willis Kwon”
Or how about
“Montana Kwon” (as in Hannah or Joe)
Instead of “Seven” Costanza how about “Eight” Kwon?
Explanation to DaWife. Eight = good luck number
Explanation to Football Fans. Eight = Steve Young
“Year of the Tiger” Baby…As you can tell I am biased.
March 26th, 2010 at 8:47 am
I have always been found of alliterative names.
Kendall Kwon
Kennedy Kwon
Kerry Kwon
Kirby Kwon
Am I close?
March 26th, 2010 at 9:02 am
How about "Wassup"
March 26th, 2010 at 9:50 am
I was going to guess Kasey, or Kacie, like sally. Kasey Kwon sounds good, right?!
March 26th, 2010 at 10:43 am
Aigoo........

March 26th, 2010 at 11:56 am
Hey, I remember those tickets...I won a pair of them last year from you. Sheesh...has it been a year already???
I'll let somebody else have a chance at enjoying them this year...I saw some people express interest in earlier posts. But if you end up needing someone to take them off your hands, let me know...I'm sure my daughter wouldn't mind going again., especially since it's courtesy of Uncle Lance
March 26th, 2010 at 11:56 am
OMG...awaiting moderation??? WWD?????
March 26th, 2010 at 12:19 pm
Uh, not us.

Have I been released from solitary confinement? Did you put me on your blacklist???
Gosh, I better check with da wife...see if you already get something planned...that would be a bummer, to take the tickets and end up not even being able to use them.
March 26th, 2010 at 2:24 pm
Ah nuts, I missed 2:30. Enjoy the fair, acuradriver02!
March 26th, 2010 at 2:34 pm

Consolation prize??
March 26th, 2010 at 3:25 pm
What kind of consolation prize did you have in mind?
March 26th, 2010 at 3:34 pm
Hmmm...I guess the blog host hightailed it outta there, so no consolation prize.
Maybe he'll offer kim chee??
March 26th, 2010 at 3:53 pm
Kimchee would be a fantastic consolation prize. A large container's full!
March 27th, 2010 at 7:22 am
Ho braddah,

March 27th, 2010 at 9:40 pm
names for da Kwon keed:
If you like initials only, WWD!
If you like a name, Wassap Wit Dat!
You could also call da keed, Ocean Lover's niece or Ocean Lover's nephew, depending on whether it is a kane or wahine.
March 28th, 2010 at 9:54 am
Well, since we haven't guessed it yet, we have to keep going no? Sky, Kai, Sam, Tony, Juan Juana. ooh no! Juana Kwon.... Trying not to repeat other guesses and I am running out!
My husband has a speech impediment too ( didnt' know it was til you said you had to think about saying ch and sh correctly. Him too!) so some of the names didn't sound right when he said them so we didn't use them!
