To confuse the issue...
Lol can also be used to mean Lots of Love - so you may not know whether someone loves you or is laughing at you!

Jazwolf, if I had a clue what those fandangled terms were, i might try...
I would probably get the wrong end of the stick, which could be funny in itself. I could never get used to that word "LoL", it is all Greek to me!

Marie-Claire--- I hope that you aren't going to start using this all the

Marieclaire, now the secret is out and more bloggers
will start using LOL! You are a wise and courageous woman, I wonder how many people wanted to know this but were afraid to ask. I tell students, the only dumb question is the question no one is smart enough to ask! Good for you! Blessings! faholo
