"You’ll want to burrow away after hearing this. 
Punxsutawney Phil predicted six more weeks of winter on Tuesday during the annual Groundhog Day ceremony in Pennsylvania." 
"The yearly ritual, which dates back to 1887, was held virtually this year amid the coronavirus pandemic. 
In place of the usual crowd at Gobbler’s Knob park in Jefferson County, Phil was surrounded by cutouts of fans who had hoped to be there in person."

    Congratulations! 47 years of marriage. That’s nice.
My parents were married almost that long before Mom passed.
My Dad said one reason it lasted so long was that he had certain things he was in charge of, and my mother had certain things she had decision making power over.
So that cut down on some of the arguments as we kids were growing up.

    I’m sick of Winter, Covid and democrats. Not in that order!.
For me it’s 3,2,1 in that reverse order. Only winter is not guilty.

    In the Middle East if Saddam Hussein pops out of his hole in the ground and sees his shadow then they will have six more weeks of goat sex.

    Looks like it is going to get into early March before I can start getting in a few days a week on the Indian. That's really the only thing that bothers me about winter. I just keep reminding myself that it's only about 2 months of no riding. As soon as it gets into the high 40s with decent sunshine, I'm on it.

    Do a web search on this creepy, sick “person”. One fawning piece after another. The left literally worships mental illness.
This country is doomed.
