“lol”

May 26th, 2010 Comments off

“lol” apparently has lost, or at least changed, its meaning.  Used to be “laughing out loud”, but now has come to mean, simply a happy face.  E.g.:

I love the roundabout too….however this is America and things have to be designed for the lowest of lowest common denominators–especially to accommodate the very old and very young drivers, lol.

Should be “…very young drivers. 🙂

Email vs Snail Mail

May 17th, 2010 Comments off

If I need to communicate with you and you don’t use email, it will cost me half a buck; it won’t cost you anything–it’s delivered by the government at no cost you you. (My postage stamp pays for the delivery.)

If you have email, it costs me nothing more than my regular ISP charge.  Costs me nothing to send you as many emails as I want.  You, on the other hand, have to have an ISP yourself.  This’ll cost you at least $10 per month; plus, you have to buy a computer to hook up to your ISP, plus the phone line (you probably have one of these anyway).

So, while shoud you go to the expense of email?  I can’t think of any way that would be to your economic advantage.  on the other hand, we could converse a lot more readily.
