He’s correct 30-40 percent of the time so spring is right around the corner.

Y'all, Phil is in rehab again, got hooked on the crack back in the 80's. Love the little feller but Mother Nature has the final say. Side note, I hope the rehab helps this time...


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I always plan on six more weeks of winter. Having extra "cold weather needs" is just good sense up here. Don't you have a weather prognosticating armadillo down there in Texas? laugh

To all who doubt no explanation is possible, to those who believe no explanation is needed. How many who doubt have never even met him?
