I've been doing this for 50 years.

Why wait until tonight . . . . . ?

There's no such thing as "saving time" nor "getting another hours' sleep".

Change your clocks now, Saturday morning, and have a normal day.

Change it by a half hour and leave it alone.

It’s marketing, pure and simple.

If the government dictated that everybody get up ONE HOUR EARLY, and start work one hour early, in the summer,... there would be outrage.

Instead some genius suggested simply changing the clocks. And we all bought it.

Daylight Saving Time begins on Sunday, March 14, 2021 at 2:00 A.M. On Saturday night, clocks are set forward one hour (i.e., losing one hour) to “spring forward.”

Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, November 7, 2021, at 2:00 A.M. On Saturday night, clocks are set back one hour (i.e., gaining one hour) to “fall back.”

I changed the clock in my car a few days ago so that I could start getting used to it getting dark earlier outside. Also, I just couldn’t wait, I’ve been looking forward to this for weeks now.

Most of the time pieces I rely on change themselves at the appropriate moment except for my old Casio wrist watch. It stopped doing that last March and now I suppose I’ll have to fiddle around searching that youtube vid again to see how to manually do it tomorrow. It was supposed to calibrate itself via the atomic clock at Ft. Collins but I guess the link is broken.

I don’t care what the clock says.

There's no such thing as "saving time" nor "getting another hours' sleep".

Sure there is. Play the Glad Game!! Great stuff..

The sundial of Ahaz was set back ten "degrees", which in 24 hour-speak = 40 minutes, which "just so happens" to be the difference between a Mars-Day and a day on Earth, yet both are counted as being 24 hours.

That was King Hezekiah's sign that God would heal him and add 15 years to his life, so he could go up to the house of the Lord on the third day. That made him very happy.

And just like that, the third day (the day named for Mars) keeps on keeping on. Every day on Mars is therefore the third day, but since the word is spoken as "twos" day people might not be aware.

(one hour = 15 degrees of rotation.)

Flight 15 is expected to go down today in about an hour. That's little Ingenuity for you. NASA had to step it up to 2700 RPM, the number of letters in the little book of Jonah ("dove").

Talk about timing:

Flight #15 - Start of the Return Journey

But in the east, where the sun rises first, the clocks return to EST. For most of the year the first sunrise in the lower 48 is on Mars Hill, named after Hezekiah Mars.

(If anyone wants to look that up the address is 37 Graves, the place of the Big Rock and the First Wind. ~ Ezekiel)

Standard time in the US is 127 days in non leap years.

If it weren't in the Megillah who would ever believe it?

It truly is a weird little world out there, because

The meaning of the name Mordecai is given in the Strong's Concordance as "little man" or "worshiper of Mars". Now *that's* funny! James Strong was way ahead of his time. Maybe he was aware that the sages said that Esther had a green complexion.

The dial of.. "Ahas"; that is to say, revelation, the revealing of the hidden. Just like the sign says.

Dial it back in order to move forward fast! Why wait? It's a paradox, because everyone could use a second opinion.
