I only have them when I post from my phone. They are in the second symbols screen. They might also be on my computer keyboard, but I can't ever remember how to access them. I think you could also get cool ones if you download open-source fonts, and load them into the word processor you use, but then you will need to compose your post in the word processor, and copy and paste into your forum post. Look for "wingding" fonts. I really like fontsquirrel.com, but there are lots of sites that have free fonts.

Here are all the options, so you can try to copy and save them:

We watched a doc the other day with Marty about Juli Windsor. She ran last year and was stopped at 25.7 It is very painful for a little person to run a marathon. Marty doesn't run but he and Jay want to bike in two century rides this summer.
Good luck Barb!!!

thanks everyone for all of the support....it really helps...and yes...i'm on the si cover...way in the back but i'm there.....oh..i've seen julie while training....she is so amazing....and wooo hoooo and congrats to jay and richard :} oh...i still need to learn how to use my iphone...it will be staying home tomorrow....time to check the weather again :}

bg has passed the first checkpoint of 10k. She's passed the halfway point! Holding steady on her pace! Goooooooooo bg !!! Sending positrons her way to keep her flying towards the finish!

Had to take the Carbo Kitty in for his check up today. I feared that he might hide out in his usual you can't see me, or you can see me but you can't reach me spot under a bed so I closed the doors to those rooms while he was unsuspecting. Ha! As soon as he heard the doors closing, he was on full alert. I grabbed him unceremoniously and took him out to the garage where his kitty carrier awaited. Granted, his carrier looks somewhat like one of those tiny clown cars where a seemingly endless stream of clowns emerges. Yep, 15.1 lbs of cat to stuff into the confines of the carrier. Would he go quietly into the carrier...not a chance. This was like a judo session with Kato. Carrier door swings open, cat braces at least two feet up against the edge. He's not budging. For a moment there, I truly considered just putting him in a cardboard box and closing the lid really fast. Fortunately, he finally made the decision to get into the carrier. Whew. What a workout.
