KiteCD Groundhog Day The History of Groundhog Day Games and Activities Links Books for Children ... Related Subjects The History of Groundhog Day On February 2nd, the groundhog comes out of his hole to take a look. If he sees his shadow, he will crawl back into his home for another six weeks of winter. If he does not see his shadow, then winter is over. At least that is how the legend goes. The basis of the tradition is thought to stem from rhymes about the religious observance of Candlemas, or the purification of the Virgin Mary. Despite the source of the rhyme, there is no religious connection to the ritual gathering about the holes of groundhogs to see if they observe a shadow. Here is one of these rhymes: If Candlemas Day be fair and bright, Winter will have another flight; But if it be dark with clouds and rain, Winter is gone and will not come again. The reliance on an animal to determine the end of winter comes out of Germany, as well as England and Scotland. In Germany, the badger was the creature capable of predicting the weather and the end of the winter season. Finding no such animals in the new world, the groundhog was chosen as the substitute. Although groundhogs throughout the country are the subject of gatherings and news stories on February 2nd, prince of the day is Punxsutawney Phil, who resides in Puxsutawney, Pennsylvania.

University English majors 4 hours (two 2-hour lessons) Pre-viewing activities/ viewing/ after viewing The repetition in this film makes it relatively easy to understand. Many jokes are physical. Students will laugh, which is always a good thing. Pre-viewing activities For culture, ask about traditional methods of forecasting the weather in China. Talk about attitudes of city people toward those who live in countryside. Groundhog Day is a folk belief (if the groundhog sees his shadow there will be 6 more weeks of winter) given new life in the television culture which dictates that the TV weatherman be a public relations agent and entertainer. Often required to appear at community events. He should be lovable. Phil means "love" in Greek, but this TV weatherman is anything but lovable. Town and city: Urbanites consider small towns boring, unsophisticated, backward, etc. while rural residents consider city dwellers to be selfish, insincere, unfeeling For language

'Efforts by the United States and Britain to warn Iraq of very severe consequences if it broke an arms inspection accord have drawn strong opposition in the United Nations Security Council. Opponents feared the wording could be used to justify an automatic military strike. The Russians, French and Chinese all wanted language ruling out such a move without council approval ..." "The French offered a diplomatic solution to the crisis, and a compromise with Iraq ..." "A number of policymakers, analysts and journalists have suggested the only real solution is the overthrow of Saddam Hussein. Should Saddam be killed, the Arabs will target the US and UN. The UN building in New York City will be attacked with nuclear weapons. It will be similar to the World Trade Centre bombing of 1993, only worse ..." What, the World Trade Centre bombing of 1993? Isn't that last date wrong? No. The quotes above have been taken from articles and documents written during the last world crisis centred on Saddam, in 1997.

Your Take GROUNDHOG DAY Don't forget to reload this page to see your entry. EmailAddress: sandcrabs@charter.net YourName: Don Barnett Date: 02 Feb 2001 Time: Comments Your faith is obviously incredibly strong. Your use of a comdedic movie to attempt to demonstrate your mythology is merely pitiful. That's just sad. One day I do hope you use your intellect for something that could possibly benefit your fellow man or planet. Or even yourself! Good Luck! EmailAddress: chersk@hanmail.net YourName: sung-keun choi Date: Time: 8:10:34 PM Comments nice to meet you! I'm sung-keun. I'm korean. yesterday I saw this movie. It's great. so I want to see this movie script. Have a nice day. EmailAddress: grinning_98@yahoo.com.au YourName: Shaun Date: Time: 5:42:19 AM Comments For crying out loud, guys, it's only a movie! Have any of you considered the fact that God created us as creative beings, and that as a consequence of that we are given the ability to create art for arts sake, without any biblical requirements of Christian meaning, slogans, and no need for ambiguous references to God, Jesus and the Bible. The link between the Israelites and Groundhog day is really stretching the bounds of what is considered to be a normal Christian life and crosses over into religious fanaticism. Next you'll be comparing the Simpsons with the Book of Revelation. Lighten up and enjoy the movie the way it was written- as a piece of entertainment.
