Phil saw his rodent shadow!!!

Well everybody, once again, Punxsutawney Phil saw his little rodent shadow this year, meaning 6 more weeks of winter. I'll say though, if what we've been experiencing lately with the weather constitutes "winter," I'll gladly take 6 more weeks of it!!! Read the article. What bothers me about this is not that we hang our hats on the word of a groundhog (using "word" liberally here), but that apparently Phil's decision is determined before he even has a chance to see his shadow!!!

"Phil's prediction is determined ahead of time by the Inner Circle, a group which dons top hats and tuxedos and decides in advance what the groundhog will predict."

Sounds suspicious... Haha!
