Once again the great holiday of Groundhog’s Day is upon us. A day when we all consider how nice it would be for spring to come and rescue us from the cold, inverted mess we tolerate through the dark wintry months. Our hopes are high only to be thwarted by a rodent. A rodent that if PETA has its way will be a robot. It’s a good thing they rarely get their way.
So today we celebrate: A rodent meteorologist, Bill Murray’s last good movie, and good food and good company to get us through the cold. Here’s to you Punxsutawney Phil.
We're keeping the Groundhog's Day tradition alive
I want a bite. In Alaska there are no groundhogs, so this is malamute day. If they see their shadow it won’t be for long, some eagle will snatch them up for dinner. Yum, Yum. At the waning down of this winter, in the dark days of Alaska, it does seem like Bill Murray’s same day after day experience. The song that Sonny and Cher sing seems to hold a special meaning for those eagles who score a malamute. ” I got you babe “. So until the ice breaks let’s keep dreamin’.
I read both those articles that you added into your post.
oh.
wow.
We were thinking about you guys yesterday. We were also wishing we had the movie. We may try to track it down and watch it this week. Hope you had a fun Groundhog’s Day and that all is going well for you!
Sounds like a great day. I kind of wish that I had watch Groundhog’s Day too- I haven’t seen it for a few years. Mostly though, I’m just really happy about those PETA articles.
