(not to mention that there's not much else to say when a puppy awakens you at 3 a.m. by horking two feet to the left of the bed)

....this one will probably make no sense to anyone OVER about 35:

ceres_the_ndotb: Pwned!

plut0: STFU N00B!

"horking" ??

Okay, I get STFU, but what's the other one?

Technicolor yawn? Embracing the porcelain altar? Talking to Ralph on the big white phone?

It was colorful enough at that hour;)

And from Wikipedia, which the kids all use LOL:

A newbie is a newcomer to a particular field, the term being commonly used on the Internet, where it might refer to new, inexperienced, or ignorant users of a game, a newsgroup, an operating system or the Internet itself. The term is generally regarded as an insult, although in many cases more experienced/knowledgeable people use it in purposes of negative reinforcement, urging "newbies" to learn more about the field or area in question.

Variant spellings, such as newb, nub, noob, nooblet, foob, noobcake and, in Leetspeak(1337), n00b are numerous and common in Internet use. The term newb itself is usually used to refer to a person who is new to the field in question, whereas noob is used as an insult.

(Speaking of kids, happy 25th to yours. I know that look you were giving her from not quite 15 years ago.)

Well, true. After your recent downs, I'm happy to see you looking on the bright side.
