I know this is remarkably similar to Joan's small sailboat, but I assure
you, I came up with it on my own:

                      /|~
                     /_|\
                    /__|_\
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~========~-~-~-~-
ejm 97 ~-~-~   -~-  ` _) '    -~-~   
  ~-~-~-~-~-~-~      ` )'   ~-~-~    
     ~-~-~   ~-~-~       ~

and here are two sailboats:

    ~-~-~-~           ~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~    /|
 ejm97           ~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~  /|~       /_|\
         ~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~     /_|\    -~-====--~
~-~-~-~   ~-~-~     ~-~-~-~     /__|_\ ~-~-~-~
~-~-~-~-~-~    ~-~~-~-~-~-~    ========  ~-~-~-~

and here is a fish and sailboat:

                    ,                                 
                 . ~ ~ .               /|~            
               .'@ )) .. '..~         /_|\            
ejm 97      @. > - ~``  '~\{         /__|_\           
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~\-~-~-~-~========~-~-~-~-
                         ~-~-~       ` _) '           
                          ~-~         ` )'            
                                         ~

How about a sailboarder?

                      /| o
                     /_|=/
ejm 97              /__|<\
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~======~-~-~-~
                     ~-~ -~
                      ~- -~
                       ~ -

its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.
