wrong kind of cricket, Colin.


Joan has done a small grasshopper that might be mistaken for a cricket:

~a grasshopper~   8/96

    /\ ,, 
   /\OOOO()= jgs
  `    ``


And here is another grasshopper (that looks just like a cricket to me)
by Jiri Matejicek:

    //_____ __
   @ )====// .\___
   \#\_\__(_/_\\_/
     / /       \\

stumps?
