LoL! In "real life", I wouldn't have prefaced that way, but on the net, I do so out of respect and communication clarity, since the lack of other cues can make a single string of nouns and verbs be taken various ways. Plus, that I joke around w/ LindyBill a lot, so I wanted the extra sincerity included. Of course, if I didn't ever joke around with him, that extra step wouldn't be necessary -- I'd always be in "serious" mode; a completely untenable position for Life, that curious condition from which no one gets out alive, especially if they take it too seriously.
