do you like pink - color not the singer?

Well, it's not on my list of favourite colours, but yeah, pink is ok. I wouldn't wear a pink shirt though, when there are so many other colours I prefer.

I like the singer too, for the record.

OK. Where does "OK" come from. It's OK if you don't know 😉

In this instance I will refer to http://www.miketodd.net/encyc/okay.htm which has some outline of the potential origins of Okay/OK.

I wouldn't take this as Gospel OK?

ETYMOLOGY:
Abbreviation of oll korrect, slang respelling of all correct

WORD HISTORY:
OK is a quintessentially American term that has spread from English to many other languages. Its origin was the subject of scholarly debate for many years until Allen Walker Read showed that OK is based on a joke of sorts. OK is first recorded in 1839 but was probably in circulation before that date. During the 1830s there was a humoristic fashion in Boston newspapers to reduce a phrase to initials and supply an explanation in parentheses. Sometimes the abbreviations were misspelled to add to the humor. OK was used in March 1839 as an abbreviation for all correct, the joke being that neither the O nor the K was correct. Originally spelled with periods, this term outlived most similar abbreviations owing to its use in President Martin Van Buren's 1840 campaign for reelection. Because he was born in Kinderhook, New York, Van Buren was nicknamed Old Kinderhook, and the abbreviation proved eminently suitable for political slogans. That same year, an editorial referring to the receipt of a pin with the slogan O.K. had this comment: "frightful letters ... significant of the birth-place of Martin Van Buren, old Kinderhook, as also the rallying word of the Democracy of the late election, 'all correct' .... Those who wear them should bear in mind that it will require their most strenuous exertions ... to make all things O.K."

Well, not being an expert on Avatars, I think yours is fine. Pink I guess is a very feminine colour, so one would hope that is the meaning you want to get across.

As for the animation, due to the upload limit of 10k, you'd probably need to link an animated gif from another site as many have done.

Not sure about the multiple posts, but the forum is behaving very badly. This happens sometimes when you delete a lot of posts on these phpboards.

As for who is hacking into your account, it depends on whether they're hacking in through your computer or just into the forum.

A competent IT professional like SmartD should be able to help you.

Scenario: a high speed police chase (Grand Theft Auto style but real) where the escaping criminal is driving his car through city streets trying to run away not just from the police vehicles following but the police helicopters watching his every moves from above. Question: How can the fugitive ditch the helicopters?

Hrmm, this is an interesting scenario. The best way to ditch helicopters has always been (in Hollywood) through a tunnel or underground car park. If possible, you could do the Knight Rider method, where you actually drive the car into the back of a moving semi-trailer in a tunnel - assuming you are well resourced.

Another way would be to head to an area with a lot of overhead powerlines. This makes dangerous work for helicopters.

A 3rd and final idea might be to head to the airport area, where the restricted airspace might prevent helicopter flying.

most bridges in the US have sewer grates, get far enough from the road cops and find a bridge, slam on the brakes, cops can't see what you're doing and disappear in the grates.

Throw a shoe in the near by bush to throw the dogs off.
