The gesture has been around for a long time, long before Dio or Simmons made it what it is today. In American Sign Language, it's also a sign for "I love you".

From Wikipedia:
Dio says that his grandmother used to make the hand gesture to ward off the evil eye, which is very common among superstitious Southern Italians. The "horns," or "Corna," themselves are used both to scare away and give someone the "Malocchio" (the Evil Eye). Ronnie James Dio is not the first to use the "horns sign". The band Coven used it on all their record albums and on stage as well going back to 1968. Parliament-Funkadelic also used the "horns sign" regularly, as seen in many promo shots, album art work and concerts in the 1970s.

You are welcome. I have played bejeweled before, though not on here. It doesn't post every score I get. I suppose until I beat my previous score it will not post.
Thanks for the rep! It's good to hear from you!

I wanted to make sure rather than assume you knew what I meant.

I wasn't or didn't mean to tell what you should and shouldn't do. Your pic looks normal to me and I only want you to be careful!
Cheers!

Thanks! I actually won it from our boy Alex. Scholes had "accidentally" given away his prizes for the night during his own show, so Alex told me to go to the Q107 shop and pick out a couple of items. I wanted a touque, but they were out of stock.

Just wondering if u r going to go to the breakfast with derringer n the gang.

Thanks for the rep!
You ... and a diet??? Really?
I am surprised to hear you say that. Please be careful. I volunteered at Women's College hospital when I lived in Toronto, and the food issues and eating disorders back then was astounding... Just please take care. Diets don't work. The lifestyle has to change permanently!

Hey, thanks for the positive thoughts. That call just doesn't seem to want to come my way, waaaaahh. I keep waiting and hoping. One more day and I don't think I'll be able to hear the final one at 5:40 but I'll try for the first two. Please, please call me, give me a chance!!! Have a good one lilipop!

Oh, I'll try to stick my head outside once and a while.
I go and check on the Geese that are nesting out back.
Now, when the Gander sees me, he walks over to me.

THANKS for dropping a line!!
I am keeping as well as can be.
Pretty busy at work, these days, so my ability to jump on line has been sporatic.
This is actually my 1st chance for a break since 10:30am.
How about yourself?
