Gloating...

Well the snow has come to an end here in the District. The total is somewhere around 30" here at the house, with the Western suburbs reporting over 40" in some places. I have never seen anything quite like this before. Now the question is how long will it take for things to get back to normal. Fr. Chris, who is from the Diocese of Erie, PA - the home of Punxsutawney - and is an ardent advocate of the groundhog "Punxsutawney Phil" (the "seer of seers" and "prognosticator of prognosticators"), is gleeful that this year's prediction has proven abundantly true! He sent the following this afternoon. Gloating, is he?



When I say six more weeks of winter…
…I mean SIX MORE WEEKS OF WINTER!!

Ahh… right again…
