just for us old timers

First time I've seen the RTFM, but I love it.

Most of these are simple compared with what the kids are texting now. Everyone seen that commercial about the LITTLE girl getting her cell phone taken away because of texting too much? I needed the subtitles for that one!

Yeah, but i'm positive there's more. Should there be a place under "recourses" for the explanations of the abbreviations? Mr Stansbury...?

HEY, HEY, HEY, this is a G rated site! , I'm not whinin' or nuthin', and you can't hurt me 'cause I dont have feelings, so my wife says, but there are some good abbreviations out there and I don't like to think too hard, so it would be sweet if we could come up with a list that all of us could go to if we came across a stumper.
