In the meantime, here's a little giggle for you:
R. I. P. :-)
(1982-2010)
Sideways Smiley Face died on March 14, 2010, surrounded by his loved ones. The cause of death
was over-use. Born on a Computer Science on-line bulletin board at Carnegie Mellon University,
Mr. Face devoted his life to pointing out that the previous sentence was meant to be funny.
He also gained worldwide recognition for his tireless efforts as a glib substitute for the
words “I’m amused.” His other interests included frowning and winking. He is survived by his
children, Sideways Surprise Face, Sideways Glasses Face, Sideways Abraham Lincoln Face,
Sideways Santa Claus Face, Sideways Pope Face, and, of course, his beloved wide, XOXO.
In lieu of flowers, Mr. Face’s family requests that people use actual words to express their feelings.
(At the closing credits of most tv comedies produced by Chuck Lorre, there is a less than one-second flash of a little witicism. If you can pause your tape, TiVo or DVR these are frequently hilarious little nuggets.)
