Default Daylight Saving TIme

Yes it is that time once agian here in the States. For those affected and have not changed the clocks BACK 1 hr. before you went to bed then you are missing out on an hours sleep hehe. And for those that think the title is wrong it is not. The official title is Daylight Saving Time.... not Daylight Savings Time. Even though there are several dictionarys oout there that have that spelling. Go Figure!

I'm one of those people who 'forgot' to set the clock back an hour before I went to bed. When I woke up my wife told me it was an hour earlier. Darn. . . I guess I slept through it.

Just call me

And take the time to change the batteries in your smoke/CO testers! It's a good idea to get in the habit when DST changes.

I don't care how you spell it, it's still a pain in the buttockal area. And there have been studies made that say it wastes money instead of saving it.

G'day all,
You all probably know my feelings on Daylight saving it's a load of BS. If you didn't you do now LOL

I don't know how it effects you blokes on the top side, but Ozz is the Melanoma Capital of the world and resetting clocks so that you are up and about in that extra hour of sunlight is just plain stupid.

Also Air cons go 24-7 here in Summer. When you're at work there's one aircon going for group of people or you work in unairconditioned situations, however the moment you get home the aircon comes on. So much for global warming.
Soap box back under the bed until next time
