Very funny, you. Now you better pray the floppy-eared bunny guy still wants to come hippity-hopping down your way.

The groundhog-worshippers are going to nail you to a tree for blasphemy.

Fear them, for although they are very stupid, there are also very many of them.

Last year was 5 weeks between astronomical easter and orthodox easter.

Is six weeks difference even possible? If so we should be able to work out what years this will happen.

WHERE’S MY HASENPFEFFER!

Easter occurs at least 3 times in my lifetime on Earth Day, which is also my birthday. Orthodox Easter I think is a bit later?
