Ta'en!


("Taken!" I seem to remember hearing a story [on tape, likely] where a guy [let's call him S for "seeing"] is telling some other guy [let's call him T for "tent" because I vaguely remember his having to do something with one] that this other guy [let's call him H for "horse"], who I think is T's friend, is on his horse a long ways away on top of a hill or cliff or something. However, some people come from behind and jump on H, making it look like they were capturing him, so S tells T, "He's been ta'en!" [I remember it because it sounded so weird and I had no idea what the hell "ta'en" meant until either the teacher or the book we were reading along with explained it.] T freaks and, I think, commits suicide before it's revealed that those "taking" H were H's friends celebrating a victory in the battle they had just had. I think it's Greek in origin.)
 
O'ahu

Both have apostrophes and the latter is where I just arrived from.
 
Rainbow

Apparently they're everywhere there.
The gold? Just some rich guy on his latest handheld fax/phone/mobile unit with an ultra bright LED display emitting the essence of a rainbow. :/ Yeah I'll try my luck with the Leprechauns when I go to Ireland.
