Request: Smiley list

Request: Smiley list

rec.arts.ascii · 4 messages · 26 Oct 1995 - 7 Nov 1995
I saw a couple of years ago a cool list of smileys,
but I seem to have lost it.

If somebody still has one, I would be wery thankful
if you could mail it to me, or post it to this 
group.

Thank you!
Pasi

      joking statement since we can't hear voice inflection over Unix.

      or depressed about something.
