Happy Belated Groundhogs Day!!!

I forgot to post for Groundhogs day on February 2nd!! BEG & I celebrated but didn't post - shame on us.

This is a quote from my all time favorite movie EVER...GROUNDHOGS DAY!!! It stars Bill Murray (genius comedy actor) and Andie MacDowell. If you haven't seen the movie PLEASE DO! It came out in 1993 and is about a cynical weatherman who's forced to continuously re-live the worst day of his life until he learns to become a better person. It's hilarious!

Quote background-
Phil (Bill Murray) delivers this monologue at Hobblers Knobb during the Groundhogs (Punxsutawney Phil) prediction ceremony. Phil (Bill Murray) has grown tired and depressed of reliving groundhogs day over and over again in Punxsutawney, PA (one of my favorite quotes of the movie):

"This is pitiful. A thousand people freezing their butts off waiting to worship a rat. What a hype. Groundhogs Day used to mean something in this town - they used to pull the hog out, and they used to eat it. You're hypocrites! All 'a ya! You got a problem with what I'm saying Larry? Untie your tongue and you come out here and talk. Am I upsetting you princess? You know if you wanna prediction about the weather, you're askin' the wrong Phil. I'll give you a winter prediction. It's gonna be cold...it's gonna be grey...and it's gonna last you for the rest of your life."

In case you were curious, go here to find out the real life Punxsutawney Phil's weather prediction.

Happy Belated Groundhogs Day!!!

Always in love...especially on Groundhogs Day!!!

It is goog to see another person love "Groundhog's Day" as much as I do. I like that part where he gets so frustrated with the monotony of identical days that he punches that guy on the street..lol Classic. Great post, awesome blog..

Hey Humanity Critic-
Oooh! I love that part too! I really love when he goes to the psychiatrists office and asks Phil if they can reschedule for "tomorrow" and Phil starts beating his head with his fist (with a pillow buffer of course) because "tomorrow" will be the same as today and no one will remember!

Groundhogs day lovers UNITE!
