OT - groundhog day

Paraphrased from Radio America:

Yesterday was both Groundhog Day and the President's State of the Union
Address. One involved a meaningless ritual in which we looked, for
prognostication, to a goofy looking creature of little discernible
intelligence. The other involved a groundhog.

Getting your facts straight is _always_ important... and I find it
incredibly ironic that an attempt at a liberal talk radio network named
itself after a CIA covert ops "airline" from the Vietnam era. chuckle

And it's entirely possible that it's even more ironic than you know.
