A plague on that stupid groundhog!
Careful, Louis, I hear that the groundhogs have a very strong union
(what else explains the growing number of groundhogs making weather
predictions for local TV stations on Feb 2?). And don't forget Peta.
They loves the Groundhog.
By the way, I noted that it was cloudy and rainy in Punxsutawney, PA,
AND Phil predicted six weeks more of winter. However, Wikipedia's
entry says the following:
|According to folklore, if it is cloudy when a groundhog emerges from
|its burrow on this day, then spring will come early; if it is sunny,
the
|groundhog will supposedly see its shadow and retreat back into its
|burrow, and the winter weather will continue for six more weeks.

I guess this is just another example of how Wikipedia gets things wrong.
;-)
Make it a good day
Make it an A-1 day!
Oh, and go easy on the chicken wings, Louis.
