CLOCK REMINDER: SPRING FORWARD

Just a FRiendly Reminder. This weekend, we turn our clock one hour ahead to take advantage of Daylight Savings time.

Those of you in Arizona, Hawaii, and most of Indiana, never mind.

For democrats in FloriDUH, when the little hand is on the "2", and the big hand is on the "12", it is dark outside, and you think it is still Saturday, that is when you take the little hand and move it to "3".

[guitfiddlist]

...and for all anti-war clowns, please remember to set your clocks back 35 years.

[Always Right]

Of course, in Indiana, home of three different ways to set clocks, most of us don't worry about moving our clocks...

[MarkeyD]

How about Idaho. It's my first spring here? OK to just do it now, so I won't forget?

[SheLion]

Thank you!

[Howlin]

And this is a good weekend to change the batteries in your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors.

[BibChr]

Well, that sucks.

If Kerry were to promise legislation that we set our clocks BACK twice a year... well, I might have to reconsider.

Thanks for that reminder! :-)

Arizona isn't on DST either.

Effin' Kerry loves daylight savings time. It allows him to set his clock forward, but then set it back, every year.

[CaptRon]

Good. All my clocks will be right again.

[savedbygrace]

Man, I need a reading comprehesion class. I read right over the word Arizona in your post. Sorry.

[Constitution Day]

Thanks. I will do that since I have CO detectors as well.

Always a fun night for bar employees when the drunks find out they have to stop a half hour early. :ugh:

In 1986 President Reagan changed Daylight Saving Time from the last Sunday in April to the first Sunday in April. Just another of the many, many reasons to love him. I love the extra hour of sunlight in the evening.

If you're in far western Idaho, it doesn't get dark until after 10 p.m. in summer. Of course, in winter it doesn't get light until just before 8 a.m.

(This from one who has been there at both times of the year!)

"Effin' Kerry loves daylight savings time. It allows him to set his clock forward, but then set it back, every year."

As well as giving him an opportunity to remind everyone that he is, in fact, a Vietnam veteran.

For democrats in FloriDUH...

Hee hee. And thanks for the reminder :)

LOL. New tag line for me for the next week:
