Ok, it’s that time of year again. Shadow or no shadow, that is the question.

I'm not sure how accurate the whole ground hog day is, but hopefully we'll be seeing warmer temps in a week, then on into our Spring and long hot Summer.  happy77

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

I think the groundhog will pop up see that Biden and the democrats are still in charge and high tail it back into his bunker to prepare himself.

Which groundhog?   Punxsutawney Phil is a poser.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Play the odds. If "The Groundhog" is the one in Punxsutawney, there's around a 90% chance that he will. So I'm going with that.

Any groundhog that bites the mayor that feeds it is a friend of mine.

General Beauregard Lee did not see his shadow today, so count on an early spring this year.  Tomorrow, the temp will reach 70°F here in metro ATL.

HAPPY VM DAY, EVERYONE !!!

VM = Victory over Mexico.  On this day in 1848, the Treaty of Hidalgo was signed in Mexico City ending the Mexican-American War.
