AL GORE GETS TO PHIL



We are having the most excellent winter here in Kodiak, We have had some good snow for skiers, sledders, and snow machiners, The lakes are frozen and families have been out ice skating. In the last 2 weeks temperatures hae risen and much of the snow in town has receded. The streets are clear, and some of the sidewalks. It has been the best winter since tha Perspective has moved to Kodiak. Yesterday was groundhog’s day, and we eagerly wait for the news from Punxsutawney.

PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. -- Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow Friday which, according to German folklore, means folks can expect an early spring instead of six more weeks of winter.
"Global warming has caused a great debate. This mild winter makes it seem just great," Punxsutawney Groundhog Club Inner Circle member Dr. Paul "Rusty" Johnston said in reading the prediction. "On this Groundhog Day we think of one thing. Will we have winter or will we have spring?"

Al Gore must have gotten to Phil. Unconfirmed reports tell of Al Gore hanging around Gobbler’s Knob with a portable DVD player, and a copy of his movie “An Inconvenient Truth”. Did he wake Phil early and make him watch? The Perspective couldn’t say, be he has suspicions.
