February 2 - Friday Funny - Groundhog Day
This week’s FRIDAY FUNNY is dedicated to Groundhog Day.
For the record, Punxsutawney Phil did NOT see his shadow this morning. Therefore we are in for an early spring. Now you can add one groundhog to a bunch of scientists, a gathering of activists, and one bitter, also-ran politician, Al (Snore) Gore, to the gang that is extolling the demise of the planet with global warming talk.
One year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address occurred on the same day. As Air America Radio pointed out, "It is an ironic juxtaposition of events: one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication while the other involves a groundhog."
By the way, Air America is now in bankruptcy. I guess liberals missed the day in business school when they covered supply and demand.
I have my own Groundhog Day ritual. I watch the 1993 movie, Groundhog Day with Bill Murray. I only watch it once per year. It never stops being funny.
"Groundhog Day" might be this generation's "It's A Wonderful Life", everyone's feel-good Christmas movie. Ground hog Day is like that, only without the incredible cinematography, underlying morality message, and Academy Award nominations. Which ironically, sums up the differences between our grandparent's and the generations since.
