What a nice post that was! Once more, for the record, (ftr? not to be confused with the other FTR that is either Joni's "For the roses" or that floral delivery service), I hate acronyms too (as so many people here have heard before ha ha) and it has nothing to do with head injuries or memory problems. It's just too much information for my burnt-out brain. I work in a place where there are acronyms coming out the ying-yang and my brain just refuses to deal with anymore, or maybe it's just obstinacy. It took me years before I memorized my SIN (social insurance number, which is Canadian for social security or whatever you call it there - I kind of like SIN though, heh-heh). Some of them (acronyms) I've come to recognize from seeing them so many times - in the case of DJRD, I prefer the acronym to the full name because I can never remember whether it's Don Juan's Restless, or Wreckless, or Reckless, Daughter. Every time I see ACOY I think of the fish in my sister's backyard. STAS sounds like a medical term (STAT from the Latin statim meaning "right away") or like the Latin word that means "you stand". And so on. ===== Catherine Toronto ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
