Once upon a time there was a cartoonist named Al Capp who created a series called 'Lil Abner'. In the series there was a creature whose one and only aim in life was to please. The nice thing about them was that they could morph. If you wanted a turkey dinner real bad, you could count on a shmoo to become one so you could eat it - etc. Anyway, a Shmoo looks a lot like one of those legless bottom heavy punching balloons that pop back up when you knock them down. You know, sort of a round bottomed bowling pin with the face on the upper bulb. Come to think of it, if I could do a self portrait... Alan
