thanks to ascii art followers

Thanks to all of you on the newsgroup who have encouraged and inspired me
with my ascii pictures.  My home page listed OVER 1000 HITS in its first
month!   There have been many more new pictures added recently so do check
again.  

And so, some new art to entice you to see more (don't you just loathe the
posts to ascii art web sites that don't include any ascii art? -invites,
that is)
