    With the smiley, I'm assuming this may be a fun one. Like: Can't Read Spit :p

    There's somebody in town who has a license plate CRS. And it's not spit or stuff.

    You are right. It's much easier for people to have discussions between themselves or with a doctor by using the abbreviation....instead of the whole medical term. I wish they would get one for fibromyalgia. Every time I have to spell it in reference to my mom, I have to look it up. :D

    I kinda watch out for those folks who have COL. It’s not necessarily deadly but it’s definitely uncomfortable and contagious.
    COL? Crappy Outlook on Life.
