Diddlethon!

Ok, time for a diddlethon!
I got the idea a while ago, and the incentive from Pete.
Here's how it works:
1.Look at the image below
2.Diddle it
3.Add your sig*
4.Enjoy
If there's already a reply to an earlier diddle, please don't rediddle. This way we stay
consistent.
I hope this can work out, and maybe we'll do another later on?
On to the pic:

*If there start to be too many sigs, and it wraps, we should just take them all out, or
put them at the very bottom.

This concludes our drill. In the event of a real emergency I would have typed IN ALL
CAPS!!!

It's my first attempt at ASCII. The second plane is supposed to be shooting down the first one. The '~'s are smoke, the extra '-'s are tracer. Ok? :-) (I assume 'add your sigs' means the initials, not the four-line stuff at the bottom.)
