The OED word of the day is ground-hog

Apparently it is/was actually Groundhog day, which is a real thing celebrated in Punxatawny (or however you spell that place!) - father-in-law had it in his facebook status...

you can have two festivals occuring on the same day. It happens a lot if you observe all the saint's days.

but it is the same festival with a different name, not that Christianity is entirely innocent on that count.
