But for everybody else who could give a schlitzel; "Happy Groundhog
Day!" We're officially halfway to spring on Saturday. :-)

Ah yes - the prognostication of the varioius groundhogs around the
world.

Connecticut has it's own version of Punxsutawney Phil, Chuckles the
Groundhog.

Chuckle's prognostications follow the same format as Punxsutawney Phil
- sees his shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter weather. If
he does not see his shadow, there will be an early Spring.

And Connecticut, the Steady State, land of Nutmeg, The Charter Oak,
liberal yet oddly conservative, will always have an early Spring.

Chuckles is blind. :)


Mrs.E.'s dog "Fudge" has been reading up on Chuckles:

He has a job as a bouncer in the bar room.

That dog is a natural clown.

Sam Adams is not allowed in the bar. Can't hold his liquor.


Poor Sam. I'll bring him a rum soaked cookie next time I'm over that
way. :)
