BACK IN THE 70s WE USED TO GO AROUND SAYING HEY HOSER, OR HOWs IT GOIN' HOSEHEAD!:rotfl2:

I dated a girl in college, Colette Hoosier, they pronounced it (who z a) I believe it was of French origin.:goodvibes

Maybe we'll discover the real origins of the name, right here on the DIS? There were a lot of French here before we became a state. The French & Indian fur trading route came from Canada to Ft. Wayne to Ft. Ouitenon (near Lafayette) to Ft. Vincinnes (where William Henry Harrison governed the Indiana Territory, now IN, IL & MI) and on down the rivers to New Orleans, LA.

Hmmm ... the only connection I can see be Hoser and Hoosier is that early settlers were likely dirt poor, drunk and fought a lot. Pretty certain there was no Hockey here.
 

Now that we have SO many Elizabeth Swans :bride: and Pirates pirate: there is a danger of them all toppling over! Can't have that, so we now have a "bookends" contest.

:laughing: But in a sense, yes. He was apparently one of the preachers who traveled from village to village (more revival-like), than actually having a church.

I have never known anyone with the last name Hoosier, however.


I have often thought the marketing department at Hoosier Tire (they make mostly race tires) missed by not coming out with a tire called "Daddy". :thumbsup2 :banana:
 
I took the idea from Annearchi here. she put her picture up so I tried and succeeded to do it also. do not know how to make it smaller. but if you stare at it long enough you can see what I look like!LOL

Hi Sandy,

Nice to 'see' you back!
 
Thanks Michael and Mike

Mike I glad you weren't playing because I accidentally posted on the front end. Then was quite lucky that there were only 3 of us playing, and got the bookend.

They've got the thing on the web where you can find anybody. So that phone call to Debbie got right before the game was from me. I asked her to come up with some excuse to use the computer. :thumbsup2

Junior is next ... mua ha ha ha

:laughing::laughing::laughing:
 
I too have succumbed to the pressure of posting a photo avitar, so feast your eyes on my lovely wife. I am the other one in the photo:rotfl2:
