Methownet BB

With an "inner circle" of 15 people wearing top hats and bowties responsible for taking care of Phil as well as protecting "the legend of the great weather-predicting groundhog," Punxsutawney Phil emerged from his lair and the Proclamation was read from the Proper Scroll:

We're all here with the elements combined.
Where Mother Nature meets Father Time
Are those grey skies?
Only I know—you can't trust AI.

It's Groundhog Day and maybe life is on a loop
But I miss my burrow, I miss my coop
So I'm headed back down, there's a shadow up here.
Get ready for six more weeks of winter this year.

Thanks for sharing this, Jim! Brought a smile to my face at several points in the verse. Smiles are much needed these days.

The short BBC video link is worth the price of admission. I can't believe so many people attend this goofy ceremony in the middle of winter!

Some might have missed the allusion to the Bill Murray/Andie Macdowell 1993 movie Groundhog Day which is also worth the price of admission.
