Happy Groundhog Day

I always forget about Groundhog Day. It's kind of a silly holiday, really. Why does a groundhog need to decide the weather? Why is it his shadow that he must see before it is established that there will be six more weeks of winter? How can they tell if he sees it or not?

I think that if a groundhog saw his shadow it would mean that there would less winter because the sun is out. But it's the opposite of that, and that just doesn't compute for me.

But I like it for one reason, the movie. I love the movie Groundhog Day. I just do, it's a comedy, it's a romance, it's philosophy. And that's kind of it actually. I wish I could watch it today, but it's been a busy day so I think I'll wait until tomorrow.
