And in being had, I’ve lied to you, my faithful reader (if in fact you are still out there).

When I posted about the Smiley’s 25th birthday I did so in good faith. But apparently the Smiley has lied about its age and is in fact much older. At least, according to this article at Snopes.com.

So my apologies, dear reader, for misleading you.

At least I got the “Talk Like A Pirate Day” part right.
