Groundhog Day and Deja Vu

Before the movie Groundhog Day came out, the holiday was only a footnote at the end of a long February newscast. Now Groundhog Day has gone from a holiday about a little-known animal to a tribute to deja vu. I've heard several people talk about deja vu, and say "It was like Groundhog Day." I remember a few years back when one radio DJ kept playing the same song over and over again on Groundhog Day, but wouldn't acknowledge it - driving the listeners crazy calling in and going "Why are you playing that over and over again?" And he'd be like "No, I'm not. You wanna hear it?" That was funny. All thanks to Groundhog Day. Now all we need are movies for Secretary's Day and Talk Like a Pirate Day.
