my shadow or not on one particular day in February has
anything to do with when spring will arrive?"
Yes. I want Spring to arrive like real soon.

Yes, yes I do, Phil. And if you screw it up this year, I'm turning you into meatballs.

Dammit! Now you've gone and ruined it for me. I always forget that it's Groundhog Day and then on the third I kick myself in the butt. The yearly tradition is ruined. Thanks a lot RG. 
*grumbles* We'll see if I remember to make her a cake on her birthday this year...

My sister in law is having a C-section today, though if the groundhog sees it's shadow, it's six more weeks of pregnancy.

**Spoiler Alert** - Punxatawney Phil saw his shadow. Six more weeks of winter, I'm afraid.
Of course, it's six more weeks regardless, but at least we know who to blame. Frickin' groundhog.

But it's a tradition for me here at AW to start a Groundhog Day thread.
No, you don't.

Yes, I do. I'm in the Midwest currently and we just had a week of sub-freezing temps, ice and snow.
I still love it.

Hahahahahaha! Well, in my defense - in the summer months I'm extremely, extremely busy. I'm not as busy in the winter and when the weather's like it was last week, I can usually stay home and relax and write.
Plus, I love skiing and snowmobiling and 4-wheeling in the snow.

*goes outside and grabs snow out of the 2 foot snowbank (it's melted a lot recently), forms a snowball and chucks it at broken* That's what i think.
WHAT?
You mean there really IS a groundhog day? I've seen the film. I thought GH day was a JOKE about a local silly festival. What next? Grizzly Bear day? or Duckbilled Platypus day in Oz?

It used to be called Badger Day. But the problem was, everytime they woke up the badger to see if he'd see his shadow, he'd be so pissed he'd go through the celebrants like a buzz saw.

Happy Groundhog day, for those that celebrate.
I have a deja-vu, as I remember the last Groundhog day vividly here at AW.
I remember someone explaining what it was about.

I saw the Ground Hog's shadow, and tracked Phil to his hole.
Six more weeks of winter.
But not for him.

Why is everyone complaining that he saw his shadow? Winter is fun!
*makes snow angels*
Plus when it snows a lot, I don't go to work.
