Where's the actual crown? Or is it that little thingy after the
exclamation point and my software just doesn't display it properly?

I was using my phone and that was the best I could do. It's a little crown
icon.

I'm confused. Why would a pun labeled "NAD" get a crown, even if it's a bad one? Isn't that for real fake definitions that were inadvertently sent to the whole group?

Sorry, Efrem. I missed the "NAD." Thank goodness I sent only a small crown!

Now that I've reread your pun -- it's a great one!

Judy,

No apology needed. If that's the worst thing that happens to me today, it will be an excellent day.

(And if I can come up with a decent real definition for SPRUN, it will be a truly fantastic day.)

Well, I should have read your email more carefully. Of course, it's easier to see the entire message at once on a computer than on a phone!
