God As Groundhog Cause
#1
God As Groundhog Cause
There are four kinds of groundhog:  groundhog, woodchuck, marmot and Bill Murray.  One way to track them is to observe that:

-A groundhog is notorious in February;

-A woodchuck has a tongue-twister to its credit;

-A marmot sounds a little like a spread.

-A Bill Murray is mad cool.

We may discard (for our consideration here) all but the Bill Murray. This particular type of groundhog has been recorded in the company of Andie MacDowell, Sigourney Weaver, Scarlett Johansson, Lucy Liu, Geena Davis and Uma Thurman.

The only possible efficient or contingent cause for this bizarre and puzzling state of affairs is a groundhog cause which I will call God.

Nah. If Bill Murray was The Ultimate GroundGod then the universe would come to an end and then it would start over and repeat itself all over again... and over and over and over again (until a pretty lady ended up in Murray's cosmic bed)... but scientists have recently discovered that the universe will probably be expanding indefinitely at an accelerating rate. So no GroundGod Hog.

As a native Yankee living in the south I would say "Groundhog" is in the Southern idiom. "Woodchuck" in the Northern idiom. "Whistle Pig" restricted largely to Vermont. According to my friend Rick, Southeners will fall for barbequed ground hog as pulled pork barbeque. He was an enterprising youth!

There's a whole industry right there!

Here's a hint ...Our cemeteries are getting full!

Maybe Soylent Green was right after all?

I just had a thought. In millions of years all our buried dead will turn into fossil fuels! Round 2!

What kind of mileage does your Mustang get? I'm not judging, since my truck only gets 7 MPG when towing the travel trailer. Confused  If you haven't shown pics of it, I'd like to see them. :yup:

Ground hog is pretty damned small, though. Maybe them boys don't really care, as long as that meat texture is there? I'd probably eat it.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Yes because groundhog is a false hog. They can eat turkey bacon as well.
