Ok, I haven't been on in a long time. What's new? In the meantime, here is some ascii accompanied poetry. I wrote it, so it inevitably sucks, but oh well.
[^[^(**)^]^]See the spider?
I'm it's host!
But I hate it,
IT IS GROSS!!!
<^<^(**)^>^>It is frightening,
I admit,
And disgusting,
I HATE IT!!!
|^|^(**)^|^|And I think its
Safe to say,
I wish it would
GO AWAY!!!
/^/^(**)^\^\Spiders are the
Worst of things,
Only good for
HALLOWEEN!!!
:^:^(**)^:^:But I'm stuck with it,
As you can see,
I wish it would stop
BOTHERING ME!!!
WHEW! Its gone!
I can relax...
Oh my goodness,
{^{^(**)^}^}IT IS BACK!!!
[^[^(**)^]^]Now whatever
Shall I do?
It is so disgusting!
EEWWWWW!!!
<^<^(**)^>^>Years later,
Spidey's still with me,
And I think that
I'LL DECREE...
|^|^(**)^|^|That spiders are so
Sick and wrong,
Oh, well. I'll quit,
AND PLAY SOME PONG!!!

Yes, but not a face but a mask, since there are holes for mouth, nose and eyes. A devil's mask, a demon's mask used for some voodoo? :) Andreas . - -. .. . .--. . ..... ..... .'..`. | . /8\--\ . |\ | | _ | |: | ||88|===|| | G | |$"$| || | ||8P|===|| . , |( )| | || | ||P/ || /_o_\ """"" . - . || | ||/_____|| `.
