Then put your little hand in mine,
There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb
Babe
I got you babe I got you babe . . .
"Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don't forget your booties 'cause it's cooooold out there today."
"It's coooold out there every day. What is this, Miami Beach?"
"Not hardly. And you know, you can expect hazardous travel later today,
what with that, you know, that, uh, that blizzard thing."
"That blizzard . . . thing? Yeah, that blizzard . . . thing. Oh, well,
here's the report! The National Weather Service is calling for a 'big
blizzard thing!'"
"Yessss, they are. But you know, there's another reason why today is especially exciting."
"Especially cold!"
"Especially cold, okay, but the big question on everybody's lips..."
"On their chapped lips... "
"On their chapped lips, right: Do ya think Phil is gonna come out and see his shadow?
"Punxsutawney Phil!?"
"That's right, woodchuck-chuckers - it's..."
"[in unison] GROUNDHOG DAY!"
Ok . . . so it's not actually Groundhog Day. Ha! Can you imagine
repeating a dreary old, run of the mill (Just for you fact fans out
there. The mill in question was a weaving mill and the articles first
called 'run of the mill' were acutally clothes. An early citation of
that comes from an advert by Cook, Taylor & Co. of Lowell,
Massachusetts in The Lowell Daily Sun, December 1895, which said:
"Seconds and the run of the mill, but for all wearing purposes just the
same as firsts at twice the price. Fleeced Jersey Vests in white or
Ecru, 2 for 25c." You're welcome Fact Fans) Thursday every day for at
least a week. No don't! Don't risk it! The wind might change and it
could happen! As we all know Groundhog Day is not until February the
2nd. (hehehe sounds like a King from days of old, 'Yes yes there was
William the 1st and then February the 2nd) Sorry! It's just that it IS
cold out there today, and for some reason I can't say that phrase
without thinking of Groundhog Day.
Hmmm maybe I should of just
said it is a bit brisk, fresh, crisp or frigid instead? Would of saved
myself a lot of typing! Ahh well wrap up warm and cosy campers!
