Close enough!  In fact, that image looks very very familiar.  I think
I "borrowed it" from an old Sysop249 message that either Bill Cassidy
or Ian Silver sent. Then, I copied the image a couple times and added
appropriate spacing to the new images to create a "Tanks!" message.

Being a subtle sort, I also waited several years before creating and
using the new image.  Why, I might have even waited until both Bill
and Ian had "moved on" from Net249.  I'll quickly mention that both
Bill and Ian were getting their images from an ASCII-art echo or
newsgroup, so it's not as if they were the original artists either.
Anyway, out of vague curiosity, where did you run across it?

In closing, my apology for not writing a more witty or amusing
message.  Hopefully this doesn't seem like it's just a disguised
"link-test confirmation" message, because I would never stoop that
low in my attempts at maintaining minimum traffic levels here in
MooseChat.

Anyroad, I'll make a greater attempt to maintain the high level of wit
expected in MooseChat messages, when I reply to one of your other
messages.  Unfortunately, it make take a while to gather more of my
wits together.  'Til then, eh?


Yours in the Way of the Moose,           ...Steve
