Drawing ascii pictures is easy.  First you make make yourself a lot
of whitespace room:




















Then you draw the closest thing to an oval of 6x4 characters into
that.  (It doesn't look like an oval at the font I'm using, but bear
with me!)





                           __
                          /  \
                         (    )
                          \__/













Now you draw yourself sitting in an office chair while holding the
ovaloid shape:



                   __
                 ('__`>____          ____________
                 //6(6' __(\\   ____/            \
                 ':_-/,'  /  \  `-_      See?     |
                  /_/\   (    )    |  It's easy!  |
                |( ) \\   \__/      \____________/
               [|\ `. _\_,(//
                ||`. "  _,-'
                \`\.--'"`-.
                 \,`.___.  \
                  |______`. \
                     ||==I\\ \
                   __||__  \\_\__
               ---o--o---o--\\_,-'---ool





My apologies to the creator of "The Tick," whatever his name is, whom
I stole that joke from.
