Another Six Weeks of Winter?

At sunrise on Tuesday, the truth will be revealed. Yes, tomorrow is Groundhog Day. The way I figure it, Punxsutawney Phil can’t be any worse at predicting the weather than the crack meteorologists at the Weather Channel. Six weeks from now, everyone will have forgotten about the prediction anyway so Phil’s reputation will be intact no matter what happens. So let’s hope for a cloudy day on Tuesday. Who wants six more weeks of winter? Everyone is ready for an early Spring…except maybe the people that run the ski slopes and resorts.

It’s even more exciting if you are a big fan of the 1993 movie Groundhog Day as I am. It’s an American classic. Today or tomorrow gives us a great excuse to break out the DVD and watch it one more time. The one-liners get funnier with each passing year. There are dozens of them.

OK, I’m busted. This isn’t directly about Indy or real estate for that matter. And while we are at it, I didn’t take this photo either. Everyone guessed that probably anyway. I just couldn’t let it pass without paying homage to this special holiday. I promise to be back on target tomorrow.

UPDATE – Tuesday 02-02
Phil saw his shadow this morning. So…six more weeks of winter coming!
