Digression from the Aroids page
« on: November 10, 2009, 07:32:42 AM »
lesley, i think you are looking for this smiley:   ???

Yes, I use that one a lot Cohan. :)

my new favourite (though i dont intend to use it too much!) is the one that supposedly means 'lips sealed' and to me looks more like 'out of the way, i'm gonna spew!' :-X
all it needs is  a little green in the cheeks...

This seems appropriate in a thread devoted to ( mostly) stinky plants!

So, from my vast collection of smileys...... I give you a choice for future use....all in the worst possible taste!
Perhaps useful as a visual aid to show which plants  smell truly awful!

Those are disgusting Maggi. But definitely useable in some circumstances. Is there one with nose being held?

Oh. Yes. Right.

Do you think the dog's nose is upsidedown? I ask because Teddy and Cain are lying asleep beside me as I type and their noses seem the same. Teddy lies on his back with his paws in a begging position and his legs wide spread to display everything there is left, to display. I'm always surprised that for a totally white-coated dog (except the now blurry tan spots on his backside and his head) there are so many black patched on his skin. If he were shaved closely he's looklike a Dalmation. He even has (forgive me, it's a pudding after all) a spotted dick.

up, the nose is upside down... I got it that way... I think it actually looks more inquisitive that way... likje the pooch is sneaking under your work table and sniffing up .... this is it the other way round...... see what I mean, this has lost the inquisitive sniffing look... it is just a nose!?



 and now I'm going to move this digression out to a page of its own! ;D
