Greetings twelph,

I'll let you into a little secret...
The two smileys are clinking glasses of carrot-juice spiders!

Ben

Buddhist-Politically correct translations of similies:

:toast:

= non-alcoholic beer
:stirthepot:

= vegan stew
:woohoo:

= mudita, not exhuberance
:hug:

= karuna

= metta

= upekkha

= technical difficulties, no actual anger involved
:guns:

= Olympic target shooting, not the bad guns
:zzz:

= meditating during sleep (as opposed to the other way around)
:pig:

= got hungry and ate dinner
