good questions, the easy answer is, you're getting old and so am I. It's the new text type thing for todays generation with their cell phones, my daughter does it and most times I have no clue.... I just go along and act like I do!....

Alright, I'll bite, what DOES FTW mean?! I knew a SeeBee when I was in the Marines in the early '80's that had this in big letters on his back, and yes Brit, that's exactly what THAT meant then!!!;-) I'm only 49, that ain't old, I hope!!!!
