Groundhog Day is here!!!Yes it is!!

If you live in North America you will most likely have hear of the great day,Groundhog Day...that is the day on which according to legend, the groundhog first emerges from hibernation. If it is a sunny day and the groundhog sees its shadow, six more weeks of wintery weather are predicted.

Isn't that silly! What is the sun isn't shining? If I remember correctly and nobody does, well it's questionable.

Now, if you have ever even seen a groundhog, I have, they are everywhere in the countryside where I live. They are really ugly.

The groundhog is also called a woodchuck is a big, brown, dumb, rodent. They burrow into foundations of buildings causing much destruction and grief.

What could be worse - they could grow to 20 feet tall and knock over media towers, then what would the internet junkies do!!!

doh doh doh

Hi You, I've never seen a Grounghog in my life (never thought they existed) but about 100 years ago while at school we as kids learnt a rhyme that goes: How much ground can a Grounghog grind if a Groundhog could grind ground? As kids are we quickly discovered the chinese guys were having difficulty in pronouncing the 'r'. For us it was hilarious. About a month ago when I was in Shanghai I actually told my chinese friend to practise it to improve her tongue on the 'r'. Once again after so many years we had a good laugh.rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

Dateline : Punxsutawney Pennsilvania , In the yearly ritual of the great Oz of weather forcasting Paunxsutawney Phil is reported to have seen his shadow and thus reported six more weeks of winter . This was the official report from the Punxsutawney news team . It was reported however that investigative reporter Geraldo De Viblis has undercovered startiling new evadence of a news coverup . In a latter interview with the groundhog Phill he revealed to Geraldo that he did not forcast the weather as reported. He told him in a special interview that this was an election year and was rushing to his burrow to hide out from all the flying bull s--- . Well there you have it , from the pages of investigative reporter Gerald De Viblis . . . wow . . typing
