Matt, BTW, what is "LOL"? I've seen it before but don't know what it's an acronym for.

I think it used to be Laughing Out Loud, but it sure has been used for something else here recently… -Alan

Alan, LOL >> Laughing Out Loud << yeah, now I've got it. I think I knew it at one time but it became underused and it's not in the acron.txt file that explains many of these bizarre acronyms.

It kinda looks like "Lots Of Luck" has taken over LOL here… -Alan

>>LOL Don't you and Alan have each other's telephone numbers? Can't you call each other up and have this discussion? Michele

Sorry Michele (spanky, spanky!) I didn't mean to start a discussion. It was just a quick question. Anyway, now it's in the take 5 section, we can talk about it to the cow's come home <g>.

Yeah, I think "Lots Of Luck" is the usage we've been seeing here lately…Seems to fit. -Alan

I am so pleased to see that the thread I began has turned into an enlightening debate over the meaning of "LOL". 🙂
