RTLB and LOL

Or, "Read the Library blog and laugh out loud." Especially if you link to David Pogue's recent blog entry in which he proposes a new generation of online shorthand. Some gems from the list his interns put together:

GI - Google it
NBL - no battery left
CTTC - can't talk, teacher's coming
CYE (CYF, CYM, CYB - check your email (Facebook, Myspace, blog)
IIOYT - is it on YouTube?

Some from David for parents and bosses:

WIWYA - when I was your age
CRRE - conversation required; remove earbuds
LODH - log off, do homework
NIWYM - no idea what you mean

Some I just made up:

MYL - meet you (in the) library
OCD - online catalog down
KOS - Kovacs over shoulder

So what are your suggestions?

If anybody has read the book "Betsy-Tacy Go Over The Big Hill," you would know that KOS stands for "King of Spain."

OH, gotta go, KIV (Kovacs in view). JK. :)
