Humuhumunukunukuapua'a

So I have had a bursa for two month or so now. When I went to the store to buy a new fish I had pretty much decided on Sufflaman, but before I was going to check out, this bursa looked at me. He looked at me the way Alister would occaisionally do. I knew at that point he had to be the fish I bought, though he was a common species, and was over priced. It was love at first sight. When I got him home and got him under good lighting, I saw he was a much more beautiful fish than I had initially given him credit for. He was tremendously timid at first, and this timidity literally lasted for several weeks, but finally, just this week he has realized who I really am, and has come to accept food from my hand. This is a signifcant step, and I must admit that I was getting a little frustrated that he would not up until now.

I decided to name him The Edge, like The Edge from U2, who for some reason insists that everyone call him by no name other than The Edge... I figured that kind of peculiar wierdness was fitting to the new fish.

In theory he is not actually a humu, but I refer to him as a humu. Perhaps, actually I should call him The Humu. I think this works quite well actually.
