"This is one time where television really fails to capture the true excitement of a large squirrel predicting the weather."

"This is pitiful. A thousand people freezing their butts off waiting to worship - a RAT. What a hype. Groundhog Day used to mean something in this town. They used to pull the hog out, and they used to eat it. You're hypocrites, all of you!"

 

It was revealed today that the fuzz butt animal is actually NOT the one who determines this, it's decided well before the ceremony. I hate to coin a recently overused term, but is has been "Fake News" the whole time. Oh the shame my fellow Americans (Paul Harvey voice).

 

I think your post belongs in the 'conspiracy' forums, my friend.

 

Not at all, it's not a conspiracy if they actually admit it. I was fkin floored. My faith in furry animals has been shaken.

 

I hope spring comes early. We've had a mild winter thus far. An early spring and hot summer would be great.

 

As if we needed more bad news in the world, Jimmy the Groundhog saw his shadow yeasterday morning, so we are in store for six more weeks of winter.

This was the 69th year for Jimmy to squeak out his prediction.

At least Jimmy wasn't pissed off this year like he was in '15!!!

Watch and chuckle!!!

Remember when someone dropped the groundhog on its head and it died on Groundhog Day? Ours is an albino groundhog.

Here you go dark. Groundhog Day: Staten Island Chuck Says Early Spring, Punxsutawney Phil Calls For 6 More Weeks Of Winter

So you should be good. Any prospects of travelling some place warm any time soon?

That movie was on yesteray. I watched

I am just going to call it manipulation news ok? Bright lights from cameras and staging can ensure a shadow or not. . Regardless, the ground hog is always right

Lol great clip. Jimmy has to be the oldest groundhog ever. .

 

Lol...Jimmy is the oldest I think...lol...I watch that video whenever I can.
I Crack up everytime...I love how the mayor gets bit and still tries to maintain character

 

Yeah that is great. . Great clip.

Did you hear about the Staten Island chuck groundhog? The mayor dropped chuck on his head and he died... the zoo covered it up and chuck is actually the grand daughter charlotte.

Poor chuck and poor charlotte, being forced to pretend to be a guy.

 

Not any time soon. July would be more likely.

 

We get an early Spring - so says General Lee!

 

I do believe spring/summer are close at hand...gonna be boats, sunshine and
warm weather SOON

 

it seems Winter is gone already....hopefully so

 

Groundhog Day is a crock IMO! Every year is different, this year I believe spring will be early here in the central U.S to

 

Well it gives people some light hearted news and something to look forward too. . Rather than the usual happy news. They said spring in 6 weeks... we got a good dumping of snow the other day and March always comes in with some pretty good snow storms. What is the saying? March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb.

 

With the impending ice age being predicted, we who care to survive, all need to move closer to the equator.
