I am told the word "wiki" is Hawaiian for "hurry". The first thing that entered my twisted mind was: Gee - does that mean that if they played curling in Hawaii, they'd shout "Wiki! Wiki!"? Then a co-worker (who shares the same twisted sense of humour as I) offered: Too bad the Hawaiian word for "harder" isn't "woo". Then they'd be yelling "Wiki wiki woo!". Go ahead - say it out loud - you know you want to.
P.S.: Yes - I know wiki doesn't exactly mean "hurry", in fact, "wiki wiki" means "quick".
P.P.S.: If you are unfamiliar with the sport of curling, this joke is lost on you.
This is an exhibition - not a competition. Please...no wagering.
