I just don't see TW being used anywhere. Thogey's Widow is a part of the community, but TW isn't being used.... Yet. IMHO TW is tiger woods. RP43 in.

Thogeyisms http://realcent.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=21577&hilit=+widow What Thogey posts after a widow dumps coins at the bank.

It is not an acronym or abbreviation but it does mean somthing specific.

It is a Colloquialism and should be identified as such for the newbie.

Wish there was a tounge in cheek Smileyface.....

Perhaps you should start a colloquialisms for newbies thread.

[Thogey]

Dude,

I had to look up the word Colloquialism before I posted.

I'm far from starting a Colloquialism thread.
