GroundHog's Day ....What's Really going on??

[Sexy Mocha]

Ok, so why did I wake up last week to a news reporter who was on assignment covering GroundHog's Day? Why were there hundreds (if not thousands) of people braving the bitter cold eagerly awaiting the appearance of a dam rodent? Why does this giant squirrel looking thing have a name? Why is it Phil? Why, when Phil finally graced the crowd with his appearance, was I sitting up straight, anticipating his forecast? Why was I highly upset when he saw his shadow? Why are we allowing this woodchuck to predict when Spring is coming?? Why doesn't Phil get his own commercial like Cleo, the psychic hotline lady with the fake Jmaican accent? Just Curious folks.
