Ya best in luck with that.

Okay...you work on perfecting that emoticon...I'll work on designing more shrug cards. (Shrug cards..lol...I like that name for them.. thanks Rich.)

Defeated? Only if I stop trying! or put it like this just to loose a battle doesn't mean I'm giving up on the war.

Do you feel defeated now?

Gov't granting some rights to the people is the norm. People asserting their innate rights is the exception.

I like the latest one. Smirkier is better.

I've never claimed I was an emoticon expert. </;^}*

ditto

not bad. a little to much "there's something that smells bad here" rather than scathing sarcasm, but not bad.

How interesting. Self portrait?

Oh, I recognized it. (poke, poke, poke) Just having some fun. Sheesh.
