The Born Loser by Art & Chip Sansom Brutus: Grab your coats and hats! Brutus: It's Groundhog Day - we're going groundhog watching! Wilberforce: What's Groundhog Day? Brutus: Every year on February second, people watch for the groundhog to come out of his hole... Brutus: If he sees his shadow, it means there will be six more weeks of winter weather! Wilberforce: Sounds like fun! Are you coming, Mom? Gladys: Let's see...go hiking on a cold, snowy day, searching for a woodland creature to get a forecast or just turn on a TV to hear a trained meteorologist? Hmm...

A “trained” meteorologist…yeah, whatever. I’ve said for a long time that meteorologists are the only people in the world who can be wrong 95% of the time and still keep their job!

The same goes for economists. And if an economist is right just 10% of the time, he or she gets a Nobel Prize.

I like Mom’s idea – or, if you don’t trust the trained meteorologist – just look out the window.

I vote for looking out the window. I do that every morning and then decide what to wear. I end up wearing appropriate clothing at least 85% of the time!

What I always heard was, “If the groundhog sees his shadow, there will be another 6 weeks of winter. If not, there will only be another 42 days.”

However, the Groundhog is likely to be just as accurate.
