Always got a kick out of that "over and out" stuff. Over - I am finished transmitting and expect a reply
Out - I am finished transmitting and do not expect a reply Well, which is it that you mean? I remember getting beat about the head and shoulders over this one in Army ROTC (more years ago than I want to admit).

Not in alphabetical order but more in context order. AFAIK, probably too many to really be beneficial. NRN OO TLA - three letter acronym IAW - in accordance with IMCO - in my considered opinion IMNSHO - in my not so humble opinion FTHP - faster than humanly possible (a little faster than ASAP, usually when marketing wants it) FYI - for your information JTLYK - just to let you know RTSM - read the stupid manual AFAIK - as far as I know OTTOMH - off the top of my head CMIIW - correct me if I'm wrong IOW - in other words FWIW - for what it's worth HTH - hope this helps AAMOF - as a matter of fact AKA - also known as BTDT - been there, done that DGT - don't go there YBS - you´ll be sorry IRL - in "real" life GMTA - great minds think alike WFM - works for me SITD - still in the dark HHIS- hanging head in shame ROTFL - rolling on the floor laughing FOCL - fell off chair laughing CNP... - continued in next post NRN - no reply necessary OO - over and out (carryover from the two-way radio days) (also my initials) There are also many sites that include the "emoticons" used to display emotions in connection with a written comment. e.g. : - ) for a smile : - 0 for suprise : - ( for a frown and many others. Just type "emoticon" into your web searcher and you'll find plenty of sites.
