A friend of mine sent this commentary on The State of the Union: “In the coming New Year, 2022, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address will occur on the same day. This is an ironic juxtaposition of events. One involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to an insignificant creature of little intelligence for prognostication . . . The other involves a groundhog.” . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/index.php/2022/01/truth-and-patriotism-dinosaurs/
