"And There Was Much Rejoicing"

Tee Bee has Pythonesque questions about Puxatawney Phil's shadow-spotting this morning, as in, "Whaddaya mean, six more weeks? We haven't really had any yet."

True. True. We had unusually early snowfalls in Dee Cee this year (at Thanksgiving and before Christmas), but it's been relatively mild since then. In fact, today's high is supposed to crack 60.

Guess we won't have to eat Sir Robin's minstrels......

UPDATE: NRO is reposting Jonah's review of Groundhog Day from a few years back. This is one of Jonah's all time favorite flics. I have to confess that, although I've seen it three or four times and enjoyed it, I have yet to make it all the way through without dozing off. To this day, I haven't the faintest idea how it ends.

UPDATE DEUX: And before you start pelting me with rocks and garbage, let me just assure you that my dozing off had nothing to do with the quality of the movie but rather, in each case, was due to some combination of wine and the lateness of the hour.

I think we'll eat the minstrels anyway. "And there was much rejoicing!"

Don't worry if you fell asleep during Groundhog Day, Bill Murray falls asleep at least a dozen times.

Thanks for the shout-out; I thought I saw some llamas grazing in the sidebar.
