			I missed the whole haggis meme. And I'm cool enough to admit I missed it. Which means I'm uber cool. Oh, and I've eaten haggis (with neeps and tatties) So explain. Now. Or I'll set Irvine Welsh on ye. |

			OK...here's what happened. I was texting a friend, and went to put in "haha." Well, predictive text with a numerical (non-qwerty) keyboard tried to change ha...h to haggis. So I started typing haggis to my friend instead. Then UT said we couldn't use LOL anymore, and I thought what a great opportunity to use haggis. Then I thought everyone could have their own replacement. Well, that's pretty much it.

			OH, and speaking of shark/dolphin, I was swimming with my nieces yesterday and they had a big blow-up floaty dolphin. I said "It's a shark" and my soon-to-be 9 year old niece said "No, it's a dolphin." We went back and forth with shark/dolphin the rest of the day. Future Dwellar?

			I just had some Haggis, the good stuff from http://www.caledoniankitchen.com/catalog/, at the Scottish Highland Games at UTA stadium. Yes, yes, with the neeps and tatties, of course! And some Scottish eggs (the most perfect food yet invented by mankind).

			I used to not really like LOL.  I always wondered and usually doubted that the people I chatted with really laughed out loud.  I personally liked to write "hahahahhahahahaha" to show that I am laughing because I was indeed laughing out loud.  And with "hahahahhahahaha," the other person can kinda, sorta hear me laughing out loud.  But now, I am lazy.   I type lol when I think something is funny but all I'm doing is smiling, letting out a short chuckle, or trying to be nice.  When I actually laugh out loud, I would type in "hahahhahahahahahhaha."   |

			I've tried using *snork!* instead of LOL, but invariably someone asks questions. What's so confusing about *snork*?   |
