Beau's Prophesy...
Hallelujah! Early Spring!
No Shadow at Georgia's Yellow
River Game Ranch
LILBURN, GEORGIA, Feb. 2, 2008 /SUNRISE - General Beau Lee,
Ph.D., Georgia’s Official Weather Prognosticator and
internationally recognized furry forecaster, roused by
"Scattered, Smothered and Covered" Hash Browns and legions
of Beau Boosters in bleachers, yelling, "Go Beau" – waddled
thru the swinging doors of his Southern Mansion at 7:58 A.M. EST in balmy
28-degree weather at The Yellow River Game Ranch in
Lilburn, Georgia, a 24-acre animal preserve.
After conferring
with the huddled crowd, Game Ranch CEO Col. Art Rilling proclaimed Beau’s prediction,
"Muff the EAR-MUFFS y’all. Beau did not see his shadow. Look forward to an early
spring!!!!”
For the 28th
Annual Celebration, eighteen-year-old Beau was awakened by the repeated ringing
of an antique
farm bell. Performing his once a year occupation, Beau reluctantly left the
comfort of his plush "Weathering Heights Mansion" to brave the cold in
performance of his civic duty. Beau has an extraordinary 94% rate of
accuracy.
Beau has been recognized by
four Georgia Governors including the Honorable Sonny Perdue who issued a Proclamation,
which … “recognizes Beau as ’Georgia’s Official Weather
Prognosticator’, and further pays special tribute to him for his
precise, annual prediction which enables Southerners to effectively
prepare for the coming season.”
Beau’s Bio and the history of Groundhog Day may be perused
