Well, it’s official. Punxsutawney Phil spotted his shadow today and scampered back to his cozy digs. Which, if you take stock in the premonitions of a rodent, leaves us with six more weeks of winter. The grim prediction shouldn’t surprise Indianapolis residents. Even if Phil’s shadow were absent, would anyone really believe spring is just around the corner? Three sunny days in a row can’t fool us! And just to prove it, winter’s dreary skies are back in action today.
Maybe PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) is onto something when they suggest replacing Punxsutawney Phil with a robotic prognosticator. Not only would the living, breathing Phil be freed from the guilt of dashing Spring Fever hopes across the country, but the robotic version could, presumably, be programmed to always predict the early onset of spring. While we’d intellectually know that couldn’t be true, psychologically it might help out!
What’s another six weeks of winter, anyway?!
