Thanks John,
I think the fact that there was something close but not quite right-"lots of
laughs"-caused a mental block on that one. An acronym I really got a kick
out of was used by one of the women on the list, Queen Muse I think:
ROTFLMAO.
Take care,
Don Klemencic

Don,
What I mean by LOL is "laugh out loud!" I suppose it must have different
meanings to other people. I use it often to show irony or at other times
simply humor.
good question,
John Grigg ROTF!! :)
