Calm down, Zeldafan.

:)

There are multiple conversations going on here. Why don't you just join in the current topic or start a new one? That's normally the way people do it when they drop in. :)

Nice to hear about your swim in the lake.

Not exactly. An acronym is a string of capital letters that stand for something, usually a commonly-used expression or a business organisation. Examples: TLC, NATO, USA
