Hmm.. would this one qualify as a cutey?

              o<____)~


I'm not sure it would be easily recognised as a mouse or rat, I didn't
try it on people yet.

Hi Laura!
I tried my hand at the carousel horse... I tried to keep the globe
round...  here's my attempt.  I feel funny about putting initials on it
since I didn't create the horse.  The horse/unicorn has been around for a
while. I've seen it in many places.  I just shortened the legs here.

K, here's a rat I just made.  I hope it's cute enough.  I'm looking for
some programs which help you create ASCII's.  I'm fairly new at this, so
any help would be appreciated.

Well, the globe didn't look quite round enough on my 80 x 24 monochrome
monitor so I put your horse back into Laura's globe and put some
snow back in there again...

Enough of all this "cute" - celebrate this season in the way it was meant to
be:
                           _   _    ___        .-'
                          ( )_( ).-'   '.     |
