I repect your opinion a great deal but it just seems a little weird to me that one must use a smiley on here when they are poking fun or making a joke. I think we are all old enough to know the difference between a joke or it being something else especially if a lot of joking is going on in a thread. Is everybody that sensitive on here? And to me,putting a smiley at the end of a joke is sort of like sit coms who use laugh tracks prompting the viewers to realize something supposedly funny was said. I just think people need to chill out a little bit and not get so defensive. Like I have said before,this is just a board. A very good board mind you. But still,just a board. But Shawna I will keep what you said in mind and try and remember the little smilies. And by the way,"they call me tater salad."
