Lauren, your contraption slides in some unexpected emoticons. Is there a guide somewhere on your site? Maybe there's a frantic face I can use? Might as well add Gov't Hoarding to the list while I'm here taking up space. I need a beer! (before the price doubles) I certainly didn’t mean to put a smiley face there.
