Perhaps not quite what you were looking for, but who knows?
-Hope I'm right in thinking elk and moose are the same...

Elk as an alternative to smilies...? Who knows, this could be the next
big thing! (as if...) Anyone else think of some new ones, post 'em!

Before I forget, only the ones with my initials beside them are
actually mine; the original idea was gleaned from a German poster a
month or so ago who supplied a somewhat limited translation of
whatever it was he (she?) was saying, so credit to that person -
unfortunately I didn't save the post, so apologies for not giving
their name.

[an elk]

[female elk]

[angry elk]

(might be character set problems
on the two above...?)

Anyway, hope that wasn't a waste of time!

Could anyone out there offer up any ideas for making my .sig a little
more interesting? It just strikes me as being a bit flat & empty, and
in need of something else to liven it up a bit... All help *VERY*
welcome.

Also (do I ever stop?!) greetings to joan, erik, the occasionally
present b'ger, and all the other regulars here - thank you all! 

And is it just me, or is rec.arts.ascii absolutely kaput? Nothing's
happened there for weeks...
