    I'm happy for you.

    The pardon is for tyrants. They like to declare pardons on holidays, such as the birthday of the dictator, or Christ, or the Revolution. Dictators should be encouraged to keep it up. And we should be encouraged to remember that the promiscuous dispensation of clemency is not a sign of political liberality. It is instead one of those valuable, identifying marks of tyranny.

    Don't worry. It's NBD. IMO, TMYK the better off you are. DAE agree?

    Acronyms and slang permeate the culture, especially in specialized fields. Computing (in all it's various forms) may be the worst. (My name is Backroad, and I am probably one of the worst offenders.)

    I once got caught up with a bunch of guys who stock grocery isles (in a premier store for the chain), and it was quite a fascinating conversation on facing and rearranging items on shelves due to customer demand.

    Yes, I'm wasting a few minutes while a copy gets done...

    Love solving a puzzle
    I never asked and just had fun figuring the acronyms out
    Took a while :)

    Yup, from early on I hated spelling out Artificially Toned Surfaces.

    My mother in law thinks that means Lots Of Love. The first few emails I got from her left me puzzled when she ended them with LOL! and there was literally nothing funny about it. I thought it might be her Norwegian sense of humor until I figured it out. She still thinks whenever someone uses LOL they are spreading love...........I would tell her but I’m 100% certain she would tell me I’m wrong

    m

    Some common internet acronyms I still haven't figured out...

    If I go search them and include them in the post, it would solve a mystery I don't care to solve.

    It's like trying to figure out what personallized license plates stand for. Drives my wife crazy when I tell her what they mean :#
