Fun stuff.. Thank you Ben Franklin. lol
I'm so used to changing my clocks the last weekend of October all these years, that we had a discussion about this at work and we had to reference 3 different calendars to figure out what day it was.
Thankfully mine had the OLD date for reference & the NEW one. :rolleyes:

Thanks *Ben* :)
This will postpone a week of grumblies for me.
My usual cheery and even tempered husband gets grumpy with time changes. It only lasts a few days and then he's back to cheery and even tempered. I've never quite understood that.

What's this? oh... yeah, we do need to fall backwards.
Indiana finally adopted DST last year. It was about time we joined everyone else.

Once more, DST ends while I'll be on the road. Last year, it was Cal Games; at least this time, Brunswick Eruption is still in the same time zone!
Thanks for the heads-up, though; I never remember when the change hits!

Not only is it about time we joined everyone else, but according to my biological clock, I will get 1 more hour of sleep!!! :D

I am still mad that they made us (Indiana) conform. I despise DST with a passion. It just doesn't make sense to me why they wouldn't just change what time they opened the businesses instead of changing what time it is. Oh well, I just don't like change. Guess I don't get a say in the matter though.
As always, wait to go Ben.:mad:

I don't know what all the hub-bub is about. I'm glad Indiana finally went over the the DST side. IMHO it took to long :rolleyes:
I like it in the summer because it can be 2100 and still be light out :cool:
I just say "Get over it, it's done, move on"
It's almost robot building time again :ahh:

WCI was really counting on using that extra hour to recover from Rah Cha Cha Ruckus last weekend, but I take it to recover from Brunswick Eruption this weekend! It truly makes it the best party day of the year! :D

...says the government. I really could care less. We as humans feel that we have to control every little thing. I'd be happy if we didn't have DST. It's a bunch of crap to me.
