REQ: SOOOOOEEEEEEEE! I Want a Binary Hog!

On earthlink.support.usenet (a private Earthlink group not propagated on
Usenet), there are regular brouhahas about problems with the Usenet
servers. Those who only access text newsgroups accuse those who are heavy
downloaders from the binaries groups for the problem, calling them ("us",
I guess since that includes me) "Binary Hogs".

Someone worked up a funny picture of their conception of a "binary hog"
which is at <http://emilmroz.150m.com/FILES/BinaryHog.jpg>, but as an
ascii-art fan, I want to go one better--I'd like to have an ascii-art
Binary Hog to post on the group, made out of zeros and ones as much as
possible with it continuing to look like a hog.

Would someone be so kind as to oblige me? Thanks a lot!

I'm Mike--James' Dad, hence "JamesDad". I use this nym in memory of my 
son James Webb (1992-2000) who died fighting leukemia. He was a greater 
man at 8 than some ever become. May his life, battle and story never be
forgotten! More info at <http://www.themiraclekids.com/mem-james.htm>.

How about this.  It's a quick conversion job with a little tweaking by hand, but it _is_ made of zeros and ones and does look at least vaguely porcine if you look at it long enough.
