Hi! I'm PeeWee, the Mile Square Farm Spokeschuck.

We celebrated my favorite holiday of the year on February 2, 2008 here at the Farm:
Groundhog Day!

PeeWee’s Big Prediction fer 2008

Yer old pal PeeWee is purty tired of the talking heads goin on about the meltdown in the markets this Winter. Here on the mountain, we ain’t seen any meltdown unless we’re talking about the old cash can every time we stoke up the furnace. This one kinda snuck up on us and it’s been cold here in Vermont, zero degrees lotsa times or worse.

Old PeeWee got tired a layin around the Hibernatorium so I decided to help out these political folks who’ve been raising such a ruckus in New Hampshire and other places. Here in Vermont, we hold our Primary on March 4th. Kinda like how we joined the United States after a few years as a Republic on our own, we like to start after the shoutin’s over. But, Hey. By then the 9 candidate race will be down to 4 or 5. All them ballots will have names that have cut and run. If you put on a sticker or write PeeWee the Woodchuck in them spaces, I might get 4 or 5 votes PER BALLOT! How’s that fer a plan?

So here I am, yer Woodchuck Candidate. Elect me and I promise to do nuthin, change nuthin, tax nuthin and pass no laws AND I promise that I will make the sap flow fer sugarin. Now, these bright media lights are makin me see my shadow so I’m goin back down into the Hibernatorium because it’s gonna be ANOTHER SIX WEEKS A’ WINTER (Like always in Vermont).

Meantime, I’m countin on you to do the right thing at the ballot box,

Yer Friend,

PeeWee
