The '-D' is how I always close my messages (a dash followed by my
first initial).
The -ly y'rs (oops, I typed dyslexically in the previous message)
always follows the humorous statement. Similar to the common closings
"sincerely yours" or "truly yours", but with the 'sincere' or 'tru'
replaced with the humor and the 'ou' ommited from the "yours".
