Hopeful Responses
As a humor writer, -or a humour writer for our friends north of the border who pepper their language with extraneous vowels and "ough's" rather than following our Mr. Webster into standard, short, logical spelling conventions because we're mostly illiterate anyway- I look forward to the positive response to the latest Bunny item and often I get it.
"Hey, that was funny!"
"Hey, that happened to me once!"
"So you're the sonofabitch who dipped my hand into lukewarm water at Scout camp. I know where you live!"
More often than not, I am rewarded with an acronym: LOL, ROTFL, LSHMTDOHJ (Laughing so hard my teeth dropped out, Holy Jesus!)
For those of you that can empathize, but like me sometimes have a hard time decoding these modern constructs of the electronic era, I offer the following short guide to instant messaging, blackberry-speak or goofs who just don't want to type it out.

Seriously, that was funny.
And seriously, He is Holy. Just kidding (I mean, not that He's holy, just that I'd be one of those people who felt it needed to be said... in a comment... on somone else's blog) (nevermind).
Great blog.
