Default Groundhog Day!!

PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. - Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow Saturday, leading the groundhog to forecast six more weeks of winter.

For us northerners (yankees) thats some great news!!!

When I lived in PA - we would sometimes go to Punxsutawney for the GHD celebration....seemed like we always had a good time whether or not Phil saw his shadow!

I heard Phil is actually Blind and that he has an Earpiece that another Groundhog talks to him in so that He can Pretend he's seein it. Poor Phill ..Thank God for Technology for his sake. Sure wish it was more like 6 days.

From what I understand Punxsutawney Phil is a small robot in disguise and is trained not to report seeing his shawdow..It could be a plot to keep us in winter for a few more weeks...Have to check this one out in urban legends for sure.Good one "E" now that I believe.....Buster....
