Smiley Dictionary and Other Things

 :-)   Your basic smilie. This smilie is used to inflect a sarcastic or 
       joking statement since we can't hear voice inflection over Unix. 
 ;-)   Winky smilie. User just made a flirtatious and/or sarcastic remark. 
       More of a "don't hit me for what I just said" smilie. 
 :-(   Frowning smilie. User did not like that last statement or is upset 
       or depressed about something.

       good as a happy smilie
