  3. As soon as I read what you said, a word I have not used for years came to mind. Since I have nothing to add to what has been said, what the heck I might as add it as a point of possible interest.............??? "Bru hah hah" is a common phonetic spelling for brouhaha, a noun meaning an excited and critical fuss, commotion, or uproar. It is often used to describe public interest or discussion, sometimes disapprovingly. The word originates from the French brouhaha (from the 16th century), which some sources say was an imitative word for noise, or a cry used by actors playing the devil in medieval theater. Others trace it back to the Hebrew phrase barukh habba, meaning "blessed be the one who comes". The phrase is also used as a name for various businesses and events, often playing on the "brew" homophone (referring to coffee or beer): Brew HaHa! is the name of a coffee shop chain in Delaware. Brouhaha Craft Beer Brewery is a brewery in Australia. Brew Ha Ha Productions organizes music and craft beer festivals. Stewart's Shops sells a coffee-flavored ice cream called "Brew Ha Ha". And that as they say is my two cents worth. Keeping in mind that both your and my countries no longer make them anymore.
