Phil is Not So Bright

German tradition holds that if a hibernating animal sees its shadow on Feb. 2 — the Christian holiday of Candlemas — winter will last another six weeks. If no shadow is seen, legend says spring will come early.

The crazy Germans are looking at the sun and the shadow and everything they think Phil is seeing.  So they are interpreting what they think Phil sees.  Kind of like when my wife and I are watching something and she says did you see that. And in some (most) cases I did not. Much like Phil whom is staring past the old hat   and could give a Beavers butt how many weeks are left in Winter.

The weather is going to what it does with or with out Phil.

Actually Germans in hats are crazy.
