Two more days remain until Groundhog Day - will the divining rodent predict an early spring, or run back into his burrow to hide out for six more weeks of winter? We're not sure what will happen (and, truthfully, we're a little suspicious of anything, no matter how magical, that claims to be able to predict the weather in Texas), but we've traced the origins of Groundhog Day on the front page story of this week's paper, for your entertainment.
If you or someone you know is currently searching for a job (and that should pretty much encompass everyone, in this economy), check out page 3 of this week's paper for information on the Igloo Products Job Fair, taking place at the Greenville Civic Center this Saturday, from 10:30am until 2:30pm. You can also visit Igloo's website to get the whole story.
Whether you're looking forward to receiving your tax return or dreading the thought of paying in, it's officially tax season again, whether you like it or not. Check out two ads in this week's paper - Jackson Hewitt on page 2, offering refund anticipation loans, and Sandra's Tax Service on page 11, which promises to beat whatever you paid to have your taxes filed last year. Whichever venue you choose, make sure you tell them that you saw it in the Hunt County Shopper!
