The Georgia groundhog predicted it'll be an early spring, but Punxsutawney Phil sent me a cell phone text message today that read, "Hey, just saw my shadow. I hereby do predict 6 more weeks of winter. Last one to a PA ski lodge is an opossum." ~ Phil
So General Lee and Phil disagree. Do groundhogs arm wrestle? They have those short little legs, but maybe we could set up a small shoebox for them to arm wrestle. Except it would be leg wrestling, because technically they would be using their legs.
"I'll give you a winter prediction: It's gonna be cold, it's gonna be grey, and it's gonna last you for the rest of your life." Bill Murray as Phil Conners in the movie Groundhog Day.

I would suggest you cannot trust a Yankee groundhog so my money is on the General
ReplyDeleteThe Pennsylvania groundhog might be right for the north, but General Lee is probably right for the south. I saw in the paper that Gen. Lee has hurt his nose - they think he hurt it on a rock or maybe some wire, because groundhogs are always digging. Poor lil guy!
