The Infernal Smiley. I swiped this from a Smiley site. That in itself is sick. There are Smiley Sites... more than one. Really Sick.
Man, I should have known the French were behind this insanity. My next net search will be for Smiley Support Groups and self help books so I can share that information here. Remember, Just Say No To Smiley. Here is the rip off quote:
"The key to communication is language. There are approximately 3000 languages on planet Earth. Back in the early 70's Franklin Loufrani a journalist created a simple concept for France soir and other European newspapers, he displayed icons to communicate news and especially good ones. He gave this original icon the name of Smiley, it was published for the first time on Jan 1st 1972. Under Loufrani's supervision, SMILEY quickly spread across the world, easily crossing political, social and economic boundaries with his ever-increasing vocabulary of instantly recognizable emotions. In a very short time, SMILEY became the most recognizable icon in the world and remains so to this day."
Smileys do NOT go with black socks. Also it particularly bothers me La Smilia was invented in 1972 of all years.
