I vote for because the other chap wound me up so much - also always got really involved in the tasks and did loads of the work.

I'm not here and I wouldn't answer you anyway; if you were important enough you'd be part of my media circus and know I wasn't here! If you really need to bore me, press 1 to register your support for my campaign for the Tory leadership, press 2 to register your support for my campaign to be President of any G7 nation and press 3 to register your support for my campaign to be Pope. Now, get lost!

It seems like some of you out there actually care these Smilies exist, so let's take some questions from the audience...

The remote hope that I'll no longer be bothered by idiots. I have to deal with some asinine promoters, investors, and political organizations for a while longer, but after that life will be like a crap sandwich--the more bread you have, the less crap you have to take!

Buy one of the couple of zillion articles being churned out covering every ******* detail of my life if you want to know anything else, you cheap bastard.

Well, I suppose you're done answering the question--

And you'd better watch yourself, smartass...

--so who else wants their curiosity appeased?...

Yes. Thank you so much for your suportive question. I found it immensly painful. I've had so little experiecne in handling rejection in my life it hurt me to the core. Especially as i was getting on so well with the hunk (is he out yet? Yes? Ooooh, we must get in touch! Sweetie, if you're listening...). And the media coverage has been so, well, exposed... it's really hard having to smile, and pout, and undress quite so often you know! but coming through that pain and learning to channel it into really meaningful artistic use of my body has been a wonderful learning experience. I have really blossomed through it. thank you.

Artistic enough for me, I should say!

I thought there were going to be refreshments.

Please, please, it's the pathetic losers in the audience who have the floor. Next question...

's pop-sensation career is still in its planning stages, but we will throw out enough tidbits--

The two of you?...<contemptuous chuckling>

Ooo, I've been looking for a new agent--

The possibilities are intriguing...

Your possibilities and hers probably aren't coinciding.

Sorry to break up this shipmeet, but we'll take a few more questions and then go into the obligatory clips-from-old-episodes. Anyone?

FINAL ROUND - THE TALKING HEADS SESSION

Now that the series has wound itself down, it is time for the academic types to discuss the relevance of it all. Grandiose themes, obscure allusions, and multi-syllabic jargon are encouraged. Cameos by Smilies are allowed.

To begin...

Smilie Sister--an affirmation of Jungian/Campbellian archetypes?

It is perhaps paradoxical but certainly obervable that technologically synthesized appeals to demographics still create resonances to pre-industrial allegory. One need only see the earlier, well-documented case of Gilligan's Island:

Professor--Pride
Ginger--Lust
Mary Ann--Envy
Mr. Howell--Avarice
Mrs. Howell--Sloth
Skipper--Gluttony & Anger
Gilligan--Satan

But how would the Smilies be designated, and to what system?
