If you have access to gopher, try 
gopher://gopher.wwa.com:70/00/ascii/SmallASCIIPics/SmallAsciiPics01. It has 
one in it.

Spelling flames are lame.  Here's a few for you:
you forgot the ' in "can't" and you didn't capitalize the 
first letter of the first word in your sentence -- it 
should be Ahhhh.  And when you trail off, use three periods...

Do you see how incredibly lame this is?

According to nobel prizewinning surgeon and hygenist 
Tom Whelan, you should always do the following things
to make life better for your spleen:1)  Let it out for a few minutes each day.  Carefully put a towel in your
lap for this.
2)  Vent the Spleen.  This is best done in the shower, as it can become
messy.  Be sure to have your blood type in stock at the local red cross.
3)  Talk to your Spleen:  A few words of encourgement, or jaus t a kind
comment make for a happy day.
4)  Never scare your spleen.  Mad barking dogs, incontinent parrots, and
brain damaged Easter Bunnies all tend to upset your spleen.
5)  Your spleen needs a diet high in Haggis.  Haggis is a delicacy popular
in Scotland.  It is made with ground lamb's brains, liver, adrenal glands
and hemp with a barley binder.  The Haggis is served in the lamb's
stomach.  Since there is a resemblance, the Spleen enjoys this meal.
6)  Burp allot.  This is akin to a back rub for the Spleen.

Q: Can I splendify my spleen by adding aluminum siding?
Rob Piltz has this to say:
"While aluminum siding requires little maintainance after it has been
installed, I still prefer the look of natural cedar shake siding.
It may be more work, but I think that overall you will be pleased with
it, you can stain it any color you like.  Plus, your spleen will like it
better.  Natural wood feels more comfortable to your spleen than hard,
cold aluminum.  A comfortable spleen is a happy spleen."
It has been noted that aluminum siding chafes spleens. Dave Calvin notes 
that WD-40 reduces chafing, but reminds us that spleens don't like the
taste of WD-40, which could result in a decrease in performance.

===================================================
To "Sick Boy":
  I thank you for the ascii-art, it was just what I was looking for. I do
question however why you found it necessary to insult me. My sweet mother always
told me that people use those kinds of words towards other people when they're
not smart enough to think of an intelligent insult.
   Besides, there's an old Polish proverb that says: "Opinions are like
assholes, everybody has one and neither should be shown in public."

I think you should both get a  grip of yourselves, an ascii picture of 
someone giving the finger is obviously offensive in it's own right yet 
you were quite willing to post a request for one.  Are you a hypocrite? 
Furthermore the asshole comment wasn't directed at anyone in particular 
it just complimented the offensive ascii but now you come to mention it....

Dear Chuck

I agree in full.  I don't think that it was particularly useful or
constructive to call you an asshole.  I think that my comment was much
more humourous and didn't harm anyone.  I think then that you should
forward it to the moderators of the 'alt.best of whatever' newsgroup so
that I can receive credit for the gem that it was.
