          ~/      `\
             /    (*\
    ptm   /  \ v \ ( )
        ~~~ ~ ~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~

Trying to keep the elephant:

              ______
             /     ^\
            ~     ( *\  
            |\  )_ \\_\_/
           / /\ \/\ \       ptm
        """"""""""""""""""""""""

Now THAT'S a hippopotamus! I also think the open mouthed hippo in your
sig is brilliant. But why not put the same body on it?

                _.._
               (.--.)
        @______'\__/'
        (      ./~~\.
  xemu   ||--||(.__.)
         '"  '" ~~~~
                  


NOTE: If you hit the reply button, add an "e" to the "freent";
its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.
