Well, might as well dig up my old .sig I used while the proposal for
comp.bbs.misc was going on.  It was adapted from an older one.  I
basically just improved the tongue.  (It looks best on systems where '
is not just a vertical tick.)  Unfortunately it pushes it to 5 lines.

Looking back on that now, boy do those hands look bad and terribly out

I still don't like the hands, but at least it doesn't look like it is
saying, "I had a headache *this* *big*."
