    I love February because it contains two of my favorite annual events:
    Groundhog Day, and the State of the Union Address.


    One involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a notoriously unreliable mammal for prognostication with no basis in reality.

    The other involves a groundhog.

    If you want a "spirit lifter."

    Try this for size.
