This Is a simple one: BTW-bye the way.
I visited www.acronymfinder.com. Here is something I wanted to share. /SOS [not an acronym] a common misconception is that SOS means Save Our Ship/Souls (a distress call); the letters don't actually stand for anything./
I always wanted to know what SOS really meant. It is not an acronym at all. Cool site.
