lush: beautiful, nice, ellegant or something
Reckon: "I reckon", meaning "I think this way"

I reckon that you should use the word "reckon" as I have. If you want to be strict about it, you should say, "by my reckoning..."
Lush- 3 common meanings
1. Moist, full of life and humid (usually refering to vegitation)
2. Really good.
3. Very attractive.

Far-east monkey: I don't even try to understand those signs (they are called "emoticons" as they supposedly express emotions). I think these two are guys with their tongues sticking out their mouths because they are happy and possibly meen.

lol means "laughing out loud" because somebody said something funny. The emoticon you used means you're happy. Or smiling at least.

He can see the signs. And his english is excellent for a japanese. They have huge problems learning english, or so I'm told, because of totally different structures between japanese and european languages.
Junktion, that link will be very useful to some people. I hoped it contained nuddy pics as it is called "net nude" but it is cool even without them.

I never use any emoticons and use only two acronyms (IMO and LOL, and sometimes PMP and ROTFLMAO). I deem these things nerdy to the max and below any decent person's level.

lush: characterized by luxuriant vegetation and abundance, also slang for a drunkard.
reckon: a sort of crudely devised hungarian stomach pump made of aluminum and the lower half of margaret thatcher, used primarily during the 2nd world war to chase away seagulls making lewd remarks to the aristocracy and flying off with their sweet, sweet butterscotch.
i hope this clarifies a few things
