Kickass, the doorstop dog, notes, along with the keeper, that the strange unseasonably warm temperatures are due to a systemic responsibility slipup in which the turtle-like US justice system somehow ended up in charge of the weather, and the Repubs then filed a petition for summer.
A prominent party spokesperson, complimenting the court system for its unusual speedy decision, said, “Weather under the authority of the Repub-packed court system means winter will be replaced by summer starting around Groundhogs Day which will become the new 4th of July and is to be symbolically celebrated nationally by watching a Florida rodent crawl back in its hole.”
A disgruntled Dem called all the discombobulated, court-designed weather nothing more than “a shameless political trick” and lamented the provision that put Marjorie Taylor Greene in charge of California weather.
In the meantime, the keeper and Phyllis will be breaking out the beach chairs and setting them up down in the parking garage where—as is the case with the justice system, nothing much happens.
But then it is February!
