New Years Day

First, what did yesternight deliver?
"Another year has gone for ever."

And what is this day's strong suggestion?
"The passing moment's all we rest on!"

Rest on-for what? what do we here?
Or why regard the passing year?

Will Time, amus'd with proverb'd lore,
Add to our date one minute more?

A few days may-a few years must-
Repose us in the silent dust.

Then, is it wise to damp our bliss?
Yes-all such reasonings are amiss!

The voice of Nature loudly cries,
And many a message from the skies
That something in us never dies.

Robert Burns

That wouldn't make sense. An abbreviation is a shorter version of a word. An acronym is a word made up of the initials of the letters it stands for.Have a look on:

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/TLA

and also

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TLA

I am sure there will be other (more authoritative) places, but I can't be bothered to look....

HNY isn't a proper acronym. It is a TLA, like BBC and USB.

HNY anyway.
