Plus, you still have those boys in the engineering classes to worry about.

LOL! Yeah the one in the middle.
Georgia's most famous groundhog predicted an early spring when he failed to see his shadow Monday morning.
General Beauregard Lee emerged from his tiny white home in Lilburn. With overcast skies above, no shadow came with him.
Lee contradicted his more famous counterpart, Punxutawney Phil, who saw his shadow after waking up in his Pennsylvania home. Phil drew boos from the thousands who gathered in 17 degree weather when his actions predicted six more weeks of winter.
damnyankees can keep their winter, we'll take gorbal warming please. :-)
Haven't had enough coffee. The result is the same but here is THIS year's prediction:
Beau's Prophesy... Hallelujah! Early Spring!
No Shadow at Georgia's Yellow River Game Ranch
LILBURN, GEORGIA, Feb. 2, 2008 /SUNRISE - General Beau Lee, Ph.D., Georgia’s Official Weather Prognosticator and internationally recognized furry forecaster, roused by "Scattered, Smothered and Covered" Hash Browns and legions of Beau Boosters in bleachers, yelling, "Go Beau" – waddled thru the swinging doors of his Southern Mansion at 7:58 A.M. EST in balmy 28-degree weather at The Yellow River Game Ranch in Lilburn, Georgia, a 24-acre animal preserve.
After conferring with the huddled crowd, Game Ranch CEO Col. Art Rilling proclaimed Beau’s prediction, "Muff the EAR-MUFFS y’all. Beau did not see his shadow. Look forward to an early spring!!!!”
For the 28th Annual Celebration, eighteen-year-old Beau was awakened by the repeated ringing of an antique farm bell. Performing his once a year occupation, Beau reluctantly left the comfort of his plush "Weathering Heights Mansion" to brave the cold in performance of his civic duty. Beau has an extraordinary 94% rate of accuracy.
Beau has been recognized by four Georgia Governors including the Honorable Sonny Perdue who issued a Proclamation, which … “recognizes Beau as ’Georgia’s Official Weather Prognosticator’, and further pays special tribute to him for his precise, annual prediction which enables Southerners to effectively prepare for the coming season.”
Beau’s Bio and the history of Groundhog Day may be perused on the Game Ranch web site at www.yellowrivergameranch.com.
I didn’t even realize it was Groundhog’s Day. We’re busy getting ready for the Sweet 16/Super Bowl Sunday.
Poor Phil, the weatherman is always blamed.
Well, I hope ‘es right, I do
