Coincidence? I Think Not

Okay Duane (man I'm glad you're back!), I'm going to go you one better. Yes, better even than Mark Morford, and you know how I love Mark. Here is the absolutely best commentary on the SOTU speech yet. From a guy named Mark Kleiman, whose is blog is called The Reality-Based Community.

Coincidence

Yesterday was the State of the Union. Tomorrow is Groundhog Day.

Curious, isn't it? Two national rituals, both built around the theme of frustrating, meaningless repetition, only two days apart.

One ritual involves our pretending to trust a stupid little rodent to tell us about the future.

The other involves a groundhog.
