Thread Name: Etymology: ARHOOLIE
Subject: RE: Etymology: ARHOOLIE
Hoolie is an Irish term for a party that gets out of control, and therefore, becomes a memorable and worthy event... I can't imagine the two words are not related somehow.

"Our Hoolie"? "Our thing"? "Our Music" at a place and time that no one else cared about or has a right to own? That is what my tribal, drunken little mind conjures up...

Somebody was havin a good time when that got said.
