You forgot to quote this little thing with my post, Dee:

Okay everyone - quick primer!

This is an email.

This is a smiley: ^_^

This is an email with a smiley. ^_^ A JOKE.

I KNOW Greenies aren't the solution to the problem - I'm not an idiot.
I also know that not everyone wants a Buffet - that's a given. I'm one of
the so-called 'young people,' and most of us here aren't idiots either.

HUMOROUSLY, and unlike those who are above the age of alcohol consumption,
we don't automatically assume that everyone younger than us is as dumb as
a brick. Anyone who's even glanced at any of my posts know that there's
usually a glimmer of humor, and that if I make a rash statement, then I'm
trying to get a rise. Besides, most students aren't dumb enough to listen
to another student and simply ignore the doctors and professors on the
list - that's insulting them to think that they would take my word over
Dr. Lacy's, Dr. Borchert's, Prof. Garret's, Kevin Fay's, and Dee Hays.

Whoa, say that out loud. It rhymes. *shrug*

Here's a tasty bit of info for everyone here (one that I bet Dan Leeson
already knows) - you burn more calories laughing than you do when you
brood. :p
