Let me see .... smiley face means happy? But your use of a frowning emoticon leads me to believe that you were serious about your first comment.

You know those "glasses" the teams keep on mentioning? Maybe it's time you started listening. I have not used any "frowns" in this thread.

Seriously,

Maybe you did not intend to, but... go back and look at the end of the sentence below

"Scott,

What is your income from that position? I'm sure you are reimbursed for every minute, every phone call, every stamp and envelope, not to mention the cost of your ISP used in executing your duties as president."

Seriously, that was not a frown. (Not that Mike needs any help with this.)

The one with the question mark over it? Looks like it to me. If I misread, sorry. Looks just like the frown at the bottom in purple except has ??? on top.

The point still is why attack Scott over this? He works hard at trying to improve his chapter and making the umpires there better at what they do.

The emoticon means "confused." Most likely mock confusion, given the question.

Actually, not only is the color different, the "frown" has larger eyes and eyebrows

Frown
Confused

Not to mention that when you roll your cursor over the one, it says "frown" and over the other, "confused". ( )

Actually, and I think Scott knows this, I'm supporting his statement and view.

Probably correct. My perception was an attack. If Mike was supporting Scott, then I apologize

My memory has her saying "just goes to show you, it's always something."

I have Emily Litella, also Gilda Radner, working with mostly with Chevy Chase (Cheddar Cheese, she called him), later with Jane Curtin (b_itch) ending with "Never mind."

You are most likely correct. I must admit, most of the time I watched SNL, I was in a........let's say......alcohol-induced state of relaxation and comfort. Yeah, that's the ticket!
