Told you so!

See.
I told you.

Stupid groundhog.

I saw a documentary on TV outlining the life of the groundhog. It discussed its background, life, the long hibernation period and its fateful, 1 day of work on February 2. They went on further to say that the groundog 'predicted' the right outcome 42% of the time.

42%?!
Nice.

Here in Canada, they don't even let the groundhog see its shadow. We do the job for him, by letting Wiarton Willie speak to the officials in "groundhogese" (seriously, I can't make this stuff up), to let everyone know the following:

If Candlemas Day be fair and bright
Winter will have another flight
But if Candlemas Day brings cloud and rain
Winter is gone and won't come again

So, how is it then, 2 days after "winter is gone and won't come again" do we get 2 feet of snow in the GTA!?

I don't know about you all...but if was only right 42% of the time where I worked, I dont think I'd be there much longer. Take into consideration that Wiarton Willie only works 1 day of the year, sleepsand you gotta be thinking "how do you hook someone up with a cushy job like that!"?
