Punxsutawney Phil Sees His Shadow
Yahoonews.com ^ | 2/2/05 | unknown

Posted on 02/02/2005 5:10:05 AM PST by beyond the sea

About 2,000 people gathered in Punxsutawney, Pa., on Wednesday morning for the updated winter forecast from the famous groundhog.

Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow and that means six more weeks of winter.

You want a prediction about the weather, you're asking the wrong Phil. I'll give you a winter prediction: It's gonna be cold, it's gonna be grey, and it's gonna last you for the rest of your life.

ROFL.......... laughing very loudly. I can hear his voice now!

Maybe afterward you can take a look in your backyard and see what my poop is telling you."

I'm sorry I can't just know, I'm studying the color of these acorns for signs. ;-)

[HER:] They say we're young and we don't know
We won't find out until we grow
[HIM:] Well I don't know if all that's true
'Cause you got me, and baby I got you

[HIM:] Babe
[BOTH:] I got you babe I got you babe

[HER:] They say our love won't pay the rent
Before it's earned, our money's all been spent
[HIM:] I guess that's so, we don't have a pot
But at least I'm sure of all the things we got

[HIM:] Babe
[BOTH:] I got you babe I got you babe




Happy Groundhog Day Everybody -
with thanks and apologies to Bill Murray

What would you do if you were stuck in one place and every day was exactly the same, and nothing that you did mattered?

16 years ago my wife was expecting our daughter. I made the mistake of joking on groundhog day that the baby would poke her head out to look for a shadow, see it and stay put for 6 more weeks. Kristen will celebrate her 16th birthday on Friday.
