Happy Thanksgiving - Unix/Linux ASCII Art

Happy Turkey Day!

Here's hoping you're all enjoying a day off of work, have nothing whatsoever to do and fully plan on doing it ;)

Below, a little ASCII art script that should run on any Linux or Unix distro. I don't know who created the original ASCII picture and I give credit to whomever it was. If this is your turkey, send me an email and I'll be happy to credit you with the catch!

Happy Thanksgiving and take care :)

Happy Thanksgiving

...and click here to download the script just in case Blogspot completely destroys all the spacing or any special characters. We put the entire picture in one echo statement in a celebration of whatever anniversary of security through obfuscation this is.

May you be blessed enough to realize all you have to be thankful for.
