Happy unBirfday to me!
I hope everyone had a very nice and safe Memorial Day holiday! I did! Saturday was my 19th birthday. My parents asked me what I wanted, and I told them all I wanted was for the family to go out to my favorite restuarant (Macaronni Grill -an Italian restaurant like Olive Garden) and eat dinner. So we had a great supper tonight and got to color on the paper table cloth with crayons. How cool is that?! Anyway just thought I share with ya'll. And so this message has something to do with etymology, does anyone know what the name Ouida means? I saw this girl I knew from high school at the restaurant and I wanted to know what her name meant. She doesn't know either. She is very white. I'm talking albino white. She's got blonde hair that looks almost white and her face looks like she puffed talcom powder on it . I don't know if that helps. Just curious.

Oudja never tell....Hi Cole ,
I am glad to hear of your happy birthday.
This link will take you to a webpage maintained by a guy who writes music. He even has a track which is called "Oudja never tells"
A good track in my opinion.Directly to the page:

Happy Birfdaze to you! :)Sounds like you had a cool day, 'Cole . Happy 19th! :)There was a famous Ouida, which was the pen-name of the 19th century French novelist Louisa de la Ramee (who is perhaps best known for her short story "A Dog of Flanders"). It's believed that she made up the name as a sort of nickname for "Louisa ".The name "Ouida" can also be interpreted to mean "yes-yes", from the French word "oui" for "yes" and the Russian word "da" for "yes". In this respect, "Ouida" becomes an occult name, due to its similarity to the word "Ouija" (meaning "yes-yes" in French and German ). And, as you probably already know, the Ouija Board is used in seances and stuff for communicating with the spirit world.-- Nanaea
