Let the spring fever commence!

Punxsutawney Phil crawled out early Saturday morning and did not see his shadow, signaling it will be an early spring.

“Spring, bring it on,” said TODAY’s Erica Hill.

“The groundhog has proved me wrong once again,” said TODAY’s Dylan Dreyer, who guessed the Phil would see his shadow. “He messes me up.”

Coming into this year, Phil had seen his shadow 100 times and had not seen it only 16 times since 1886, according to Punxsutawney Groundhog Club’s Inner Circle. There are no records for the missing 10 years. The 15 members of the inner circle, clad in tophats and tuxedos, decide in advance whether to announce Phil has seen his shadow or not, even though the groundhog does the symbolic duty.

In Punxsutawney, which is about 65 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, the groundhog annual makes his prediction on a hill known as Gobbler’s Knob. The event annually attracts more than 15,000 people and brought as many as 30,000 in the wake of the 1993 release of the Bill Murray classic movie “Groundhog Day,” according to the Inner Circle. There also are updates on Twitter and Facebook.

The celebration dates to the early Christians in Europe, particularly the Germans, who were some of the earliest settlers of Pennsylvania and believed the groundhog’s intelligence was such that if the sun came out on Feb. 2 it would be smart enough to go back underground for another six weeks of winter. The first written observance of the tradition came in 1886 after it had earlier been conducted privately in wooded areas outside town.

Cold Ducks at Lanes Cove

Plum Cove Beach 01/25/2013

Not since Al (I invented the internet) Gore tried to steal the 2000 election has there been such a voting Scandal. I received a call from the Poll Daddy poll watching Lawyers Today. I was informed that there was significant voting irregularity in the “Dump or not Not Dump Paulie Walnuts” Poll. Some Wise ass hacked into my poll and voted multiple times. The Lawyers did not say what question that person voted for multiple times. Therefore Poll Daddy has disqualified this Vote.  Maybe in a few months I will run this poll again but until then your stuck with me.  Thanks to all who voted legally for or against me.

The People have Spoken!

It’s Been Real! Thanks All!

Last Chance to Vote! Poll ends at 12 midnight.

Keep me, Dump me or send me to Florida. It’s your choice and I will go with the final vote. You can trust me on that. Thanks to all that have voted so far.

Lately I’ve been dealing with almost the same decision as Fr. Green.  Actually, I had the same thoughts as Fr. Green. But, in the opposite way. I feel GMG has gone too “Nicey, Nice”.

When I first started we had a great time Busting each others cojohnes. Dead Seagulls, Rotting heron, Bathroom humor, etc.. I can understand Fr. Green’s concern because of the business he’s in. But I don’t have a higher authority to answer too, other than Joey C. Oh yeah and my Wife. I’m glad he decided to stay and share his work with everyone.
Joey once told me that some of my posts have cost GMG some readers. That’s a little hard to believe.  Below is some examples of the said posts and also a poll inspired by Fr Green.

Below is one of my firsts posts;
