You were right the first time. It is a nautically influenced name. The HTH stands for Herburt Tinklethon Hiickupman. He was one of the truly great bellhops in England's Royal Navy. I try to pattern my life after him. :D


Not Afraid did call last night, but it was very loud in my house last night, so we didn't hear the phone ring. It was a very successful party.

Happy 11th Birthday Hollywood Tower Hotel!

(Not that I've been there yet!)

Not true. A couple people (including me) heard the phone ring. Had I been able to get to it in time, I might've recognized NA's number on the call ID and answered (generally, tho, I don't make a habit of answering other people's phones). But, alas, I was too drunk to get that far that fast.

It was a very successful party.

Me thinks MF is telling tall drunk tales. ;)

Oh, come on. This is an HTH thread. I thought you would have fallen for it.

Matterlush Fan, when you get a chance would you please return my lampshades. Thanks.

Nah, I think I'll keep them. They match my apartment, and your place looks better with more light.
