It’s Groundhog Day!!
HOW LONG WAS PHIL CONNORS STUCK RELIVING THE SAME DAY?
Thursday (February 2) is Groundhog Day, which naturally leads film fans to thoughts of the classic 1993 comedy from Harold Ramis, starring Bill Murray. One of the big questions for many fans of the film is: just how long was Phil Connors (Murray) stuck reliving the same day in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, during the events seen in Groundhog Day?
… One article estimated about nine years. Harold Ramis originally estimated ten years on one DVD commentary, then in response to the nine year computation revised that number to be much higher. So how long was it, really? Harold Ramis eventually said: “I think the 10-year estimate is too short. It takes at least 10 years to get good at anything, and alloting for the down time and misguided years he spent, it had to be more like 30 or 40 years…”
I love the movie, but my favorite scenes are the ones with Ned Ryerson…Enjoy.
Got the shingles real bad senior year, almost didn’t graduate?

Five Spring Cleaning Tips You’ve Never Heard Before:
It’s Groundhog Day, so if you want to get a jump on your spring cleaning, here’s a list of five cleaning tips you’ve never heard before, according to “Reader’s Digest”.
#1.) Use Coffee Filters Instead of Paper Towels to Clean Your Windows. Paper towels can leave streaks and lint on the glass. Coffee filters won’t, and they’re just as cheap.
#2.) Clean Your Microwave with a Cup of Water and Baking Soda. Just mix it together, and microwave it until it starts boiling. It’ll get rid of any weird smell that’s been lingering, and also make it easier to wipe down the inside.
–Use a coffee cup so you have a handle to grab when you take it out.
#3.) Use Dryer Sheets to Clean Your Window Blinds. It creates an anti-static barrier that helps prevent dust from building up again.
#4.) To Clean Your Oven, Use a Wet Pumice Stone. Obviously, that’s for REALLY tough, blackened build-up. You don’t want to scratch anything. According to “Reader’s Digest”, it works better than anything you can buy in a spray bottle.
#5.) Use a Denture Tablet to Clean Your Toilet. Just drop one in and leave it for at least 30 minutes. Or overnight if it’s REALLY bad. After it dissolves, any stains on the inside of the bowl should come off easily with a toilet brush.
