Hope springs eternal

I don't know if you knew this or not, but the President of the United States of America pardons a turkey every year.  One. Lucky. Turkey.

I don't know how long that pardon is for though.  I don't know if it's just for the Thanksgiving weekend or what. Is there a ranch full of Presidentially pardoned turkeys?  I. DON'T.  KNOW.

Here's a picture.  Enjoy the thousand words that are no doubt flooding your mind.
