Well, either he likes you a lot, Father Steve, or maybe he was really saying Holmes, as in Sherlock.

My attention was caught by the end of a line (really--not the beginning) here:
ho
1) (n) Hooker, prostitute, from the Southern pronounciation of the word whore. "She ain't nothing but another ho, according to the system" -- KRS-One (Exhibit D. [1990]).
2) (v) To sell out.

My mind flashed immediately from KRS to Kentucky Revised Statutes, having dealt with them so much. You reckon that's what this is referring to? (Except, I don't know what to make of the "-One": ours usually read something like KRS 177.421.)
