So that furry little bastard crawled out of the ground yesterday and saw his shadow. Big surprise. Our collective, societal superstition tells us that we’re going to get six more weeks of winter on account of it. Is it just me, or does that suck?
Well, folks, worry not. I know how we can fix this little problem. Winter will never last into March again. The key, obviously, is to keep the groundhog from seeing his shadow… and how are we going to do that?
We’re going to gouge his beady little eyes out, that’s how.
I think it’s time to up your meds.
Or you could just move to Tempe. … It’s 70 degrees and sunny here today.
Yeah… but then you turn into a gigantic wuss and can’t ever leave the state.
Whatever, I can still take you.
Set your oven for 125 degrees, crawl in there for three months, and then tell me how much of a wuss I am.
I have good news for you. T-Bone the Nutria, who lives at the zoo in New Orleans, does his own groundhog day bit. I am happy to report that the nutria DID NOT see his shadow, so good weather is right around the corner!
(Of course it was raining, cold, and cloudy when T-Bone came out of the hole so there was no shadow whatsoever… but that’s beside the point!)
Um, dearie… I know you think it gets hot out there… and maybe it does… but at least you’re not contending with humidity as well.
Damn that extreme heat and horrid humidity! How I love my California weather.
It’s almost 6pm here and it’s 64.2 degrees right now, you sure you don’t want to move to Tempe?
I seem to recall certain ASU students whining incessantly about the humiditiy in SAINT LOUIS… as if it was even bad.
WUSSES!
Anything under 100% humidity is just not worth bitching about.
I’m with Robert on this one - thank god for sunny southern California weather.
Yeah… SoCal… the only place that’ll make you a bigger wuss than Arizona.
Damn Straight! NorCal, woot!
