The problem, JD, is that you are not putting in the proper
thingy (I know there is a proper word for this, but I can
never remember it) that indicates sarcasm. I consulted the
canonical list of smiley faces:

and the only thing I could find is ;-), which is purported
to be "flirtatious or sarcastic". I wouldn't go with
flirtatious. I tried that yesterday with, well, bad results.

And, geez, for all I know you may have already have put
the proper similey in there. I'm still working
through the first inside pair of parentheses. :-(

Cheers,

David
