Hi Eldon.... I know others have already posted to ya explaining what PWP and 65/11 mean so I won't run that by ya again. A few other acronyms you'll see used online and on the List are ( typed without quote marks when messaging) "BTW," meaning "by the way," "TTYL" meaning "talk to ya later," "LOL," which means "laughing out loud," "ROFL" meaning "rolling on floor laughing, plus you'll see a variety of online "happy faces," that look something like this: :) = plain everyday garden variety "happy face" :( = sad "happy face" B-) = "happy face" wearing glasses : # = "happy face" with braces on teeth @:-) = "happy face" with new hairdo *<@:-) = "happy face" with hat and new hairdo! I hope the "happy faces" brought a smile to your face, because laughter is one of the most beneficial medical treatments for any disorder, it doesn't hurt when ya get the treatment, won't cause ya to gain weight, AND it's free! SUCH a deal, huh? <smile> Welcome to the PD List...
