Hi all,
I had such fun reading all through the PT Words That Make You Smile (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=15991) thread that I thought I would compile a little dictionary of sorts in the thread. Well, I kept having to go back so often to keep it current that I figure why not make it semi official and put it here:D The original is still up there and well worth reading through when you need the laughs!!!
