In 1988, Leonso Canales of Kingsville, Texas, began his righteous, decades-long campaign to replace the greeting “hello” with “heaven-o.”
He even took out newspapers and even convinced the Kleberg County commissioners to make “heaven-o” the official greeting there. Canales passed away last year, but his dream still lives on in the Wayback Machine’s archive of heaveno.com.
“We promote a negative attitude every time we greet someone,” Canales said. “Maybe it affects the way we behave to each other.”
