I just wanted to give an update on yesterday's groundhog activity. America's most famous groundhog, Punxutawney Phil, predicted six more weeks of winter. But before you get too depressed, a lesser known groundhog from Georgia, General Beauregard Lee (picture included), predicted an early spring. In fact, The General has been far more accurate in his predictions over the years than Punxutawney has, so my guess would be for an early spring.
As a side note, you may be wondering what General Beauregard Lee eats to keep his fur coat nice and shiny. The Atlanta-Journal Constitution reports that the Waffle House dontated a meal of hashbrowns - scattered, smothered, and covered - for The General. Apparently, he eats better than me.
