Glenn suggested making a VH glossary with terms and acronyms that we use on here, so I've done some preliminary work in setting it up. You can view the glossary from the link at the top of any forum page. It is a work in progress and needs a lot more stuff, but you guys can at least get a feel for it, and please point out things that are missing, terms that should be in there.

Enjoy!

Dude, Brett, you have MTM twice...
Does that make that REALLY important? http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/biggrin.gif

------------------
Sammy is to Van Halen as Eddie is - you can't take the Red out of the Rock!
--------
"Take your vitamin "T" with salt 'n lemon slice ..."
UP FRONT FANATIC!

Ah, something else hit me... how about stuff like:

SGMAD - Somebody Get Me a Doctor
INSG - I Never Said Goodbye

And hell, if you want to show the flavor you can always have the explination of what EUAS and UFF mean to someone who is a casual visitor...

EUAS - Eat Us And Smile, a pro Dave group
UFF - Up Front Fanatics, a pro Sammy group

Dunno...

Oops, fixed the MTM thing. I guess every song has an acronym if it's more than one word, not sure I should include every one though. I guess I should. Also with regards to UFF and EUAS, I know you guys think they should be in there glossary, but it's not really a VH thing, more of a site thing, so I'm not going to include them. I know casual visitors won't know what they mean, but no offense to you guys, but I'm not sure I want them to know. http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif

That's cool, Brett. You're the god around here, I'm just your lowly prophet http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/biggrin.gif

Hey Brett, just sent you an email. I don't see the Van Halen Encyclopedia on the glossary list. Looks good my friend.http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif

That was a great idea!

Hey, little typo, it's "Can't Get This Stuff No More," not "Can't Get THAT Stuff No More"

People can figure out these things on their own, but some other "Internet abbreviations" that I see a lot are:

BTW - by the way
TIA - thanks in advance
FWIW - for what it's worth


------------------
"1989" (http://www.vhvault.com/1989/)

"i still dream big thanx to Van Halen music!" - Eddie_italian

COOL!

I LOVE stuff like this! http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif


The Mard-"No Mas, No Mas..."

------------------
"Keep honking buddy. I'm reloading..."
"Lookin' good thru the window, shinin' red & blue light..."
"Shut 'em up, cover up, got to disract 'em!"
"Winner takes it all, 'Till he breaks the fall, In time he'll make it over the top!"

Thanks Synth, got 'em all. Silly typo on that song.

How about PPV-pay per view?

Brett, did you get that email I sent you about the 5150 code? I thought that was California, but the list says New York.

Glenn, oh yeah, well I read somewhere that is the NY code, not the CA code. I'll have to look it up again.
