Apparently, some semi-famous groundhog from New Jersey died? Maybe? But the original dude from Pennsylvania, "Punxsutawney Phil," is alive and well and predicted COVID for 19 more years.

Kidding. He doesn't predict COVID. That's for #TFG. Phil did see his shadow, so supposedly, there will be another 6 weeks of winter.

Being that he's about 40 percent accurate (still better than paid meteorologists on TV), don't hold your breath.

In other news, President Biden has authorized thousands of troops to be deployed in Europe, just in case Putin invades Ukraine.

And, yes, there was another deadly shooting at a school. Only in 'Murica!
