#4 Jimmy the Groundhog, Wisconsin's answer to Punxuntawney Phil, is more gentlemanly--at least the current Jimmy IX is. It helps that the mayor of Sun Prairie, WI, by virtue of his office, has the ability to speak Groundhogese; so when the cantankerous Jimmy VIII wouldn't come out of his hutch, the Mayor was still able to make the pronouncement! The present Jimmy IX, rescued after a roadside accident, is very calm and willing to let school kids pet him. He gives the mayor no grief on the big day.

Bloomberg obviously does not have the same perks as the mayor of Sun Prairie. He should call up the mayor of Sun Prairie and ask how it's done.
