    Technically I didn't misspell Hippa. I just didn't capitalize it to 157's liking.

    And yeah my spelling is bad. The worst even.

    Also Hippa Hippa Hippa.

    Alright already. I'll bounce and the thing should about equal out.

    eh? is it not an acronym that stands for Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act? with two A's and one P?

    oh yes we know. we like your relaxed attitude about it.

    "Hippa" is phoenetic pronunciation. It doesn't mean he misspelled it. It's like calling the Federal National Mortgage Program (FNMA) "Fannie Mae".

    Deek can be kind of dry, but he's personable enough. I allowed him to live. :hihi:

    My dad would get the NCAA and the NAACP confused. During a football telecast, they would mention NCAA sanctions and my dad would get angry. "That goddamn NCAACP is trying to take over football now!"

    Now that's funny! I can picture my grandfather saying something along those lines, just like he used to go off on those "damn tie-yoter" cars.

    i really never knew my paternal grandfather, but an older cousin tells me stories like about how the man was very hard of hearing, yet loved to listen to baseball on the radio. he said that my grandfather never realized it wasnt the houston "escrow's" baseball team.:hihi:
