Thanks for that. If I swivel 180 degrees, I'm face-to-face with my complete Calvin and Hobbes collection. Now I know how I'll spend tomorrow evening--a nice respite from 24-by-7 reality!

Calvin makes this snowman who's expression is one of agony, to illustrate some Kafka-esque philosophy of Man's Pain. Has a profound discussion with Hobbes, then sells out and changes it to a Frosty clone. I'd love to find it again, if anyone knows the one I mean!
