I have just found out that the triple parenthesis around someone's name can be misconstrued to denote that they are Jewish. I have always done this, so if I have hugged you in the past, and you are Jewish it was not meant as anything but a hug.

I am looking for an alternative to the triple parenthesis. Any ideas ?

Yes...I was just going to say thats the normal way Ive seen 'hugs' done on WP anyway. {{{Natalie Portman}}}, and not (((Natalie Portman))). The convention (even among folks like me who never heard of this anti-semitic code thing) was to use brackets, and not parenthesis.

When you move in right up close to me
That's when I get the chills all over me
Quivers down my backbone
I got the shakes in my thighbone
I got the shivers in my kneebone
Shakin' all over
