Yay, more winter!

Winter's my favorite season, Groundhog Day (not Groundhog's) is one of my favorite holidays, and I will personally dispatch every monkey killer in the nation to defend Phil.

First D.J.: Rise and shine, campers, and don't forget your booties 'cause it's cooooold out there today.
Second D.J.: It's cold out there every day. What is this, Miami Beach?
First D.J.: Not hardly. So the big question on everybody's lips.
Second D.J.: On their chapped lips
First D.J.: their chapped lips is, does Phil feel lucky? Punksatawney Phil, thats right wood chuck chuckers its
[in unison]
GROUNDHOG DAY!

The best thing about Groundhog day is the leftovers.

Sooooo, you do realize that no matter what the first day of spring is March 21st (give or take a day)? I mean, no matter what the groundhog sees, we're still going to have six more weeks of winter.
If I had any clue, would I be here?

Amen.  Just because humans put a silly date on a calendar doesn't mean groundhogs don't know what they're talking about.  They've been seeing their shadows WAY longer than any calendar system.  I mean, calendar systems still don't even have shadows.

What groundhogs?
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)
