Normally I would be inclined to answer that for fun, but I hurt myself pretty badly today. (I think I broke my wrist. Got to go get a doctor appointment.) Anyway, the point is that's too much work for me to do right now. Is there a tool to input this type of stuff. I don't even know UH's pablo right now, if ya at least could tell me that. There is if you make one, which I made several years ago. You can get pablo ratings on richkern.com, but because it is a subscription service, I don't repeat them here. (I have Rich's permission to do what I do here with calculating the percentages and showing the rankings.)

What would Hawaii's record be using pablo if they played in the pac. You can take out USC since they already played. Normally I would be inclined to answer that for fun, but I hurt myself pretty badly today. (I think I broke my wrist. Got to go get a doctor appointment.) Anyway, the point is that's too much work for me to do right now. I hope your wrist is okay and that it's nothing too serious!

I'm trying to find the best way to get it looked at right now. (Waiting for scheduling person to find an opening.)

I am not xenophobic, but I wondered WTH kind of name is "Puk Stubbe". Turns out it's Danish. That's cool. But she's from the Netherlands. Also cool. I enjoyed the week I spent in Den Haag.

Puk isn't really a Danish name. It's the local transliteration of Shakespeare's "Puck" and most known as one of the elves in a very popular Danish Christmas special (where they mostly speak Danglish). I've literally never met a Danish person named Puk (and have lived there and speak the language). I imagine she was just named that because her parents thought it sounded cool. Danish /= Dutch

But yeah, it's the same Puck. I imagine she was just named that because her parents thought it sounded cool. Danish /= Dutch Aren't most kids named that way? But in the post-EU world, I know a LOT of Europeans who don't live in their culturally-native country. Her parents could easily be Danish even though she is from the Netherlands.

Yeah it’s not in Danish via old English.. or old Norse (and into Danish via old English is just not a route words took). It’s Shakespeare.

He made it up as a personal name…. and the word you’re referring to has t even survived into Danish. I’m sorry your five seconds of googling misled you. Plus, she’s not even Danish!!!
