I always find the choices are too limited. :(

But then again, if I were a good writer, I could express emotions through my words. (Note the hypothetical 'were')

Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.

I cannot find them either. Slava is a pro.
And she told me how to post, but I cannot get it done.
I am must not that computer savvy.
I really love the white one that resembles somewhat
the head in the famous painting: The Scream.

Luke hates smiley faces and puns, so he used to use a green sickie on another site to comment on bad puns.

There's not sickie here. Thus the face.

SURE
just because you know how to post and won't share
the knowlege, pictures that is. Get it so that I can

Don't just hurt my feeling (I only have one)
by posting and not telling me how.
