Punxsutawney Phil Reads Report, Doesn’t See Shadow

Wow, who woulda thunk it? Wing Bowl and Groundhog Day on the same day! I’m surprised that when these two events were going on at the same time the world didn’t explode in some sort of God-channeled rage: “This is what you idiots care about?! Do you know how much fun sex is?”

Anyway, after we spent the majority of our winter running through the streets in shorts and t-shirts, Punxsutawney Phil didn’t see his shadow today and predicted an early spring! And why not? Today was the same day scientists issued a report saying global warming was man-made and likely to continue. (Phil probably read that report when he woke up.)

But, hey, by the time the polar ice caps melt and the Jersey shore is now in Cherry Hill, we’ll all be dead and gone! (This is President Bush’s take on it, I think.) So let’s enjoy our 80 degree weather in (hopefully) March and then worry about global warming later. Now let’s do the “Pennsylvania Polka.”

Editor’s Note: Okay, okay, I’m done.
