Am I late for the semi-annual complain-a-thon about Daylight Saving?

[Orrex]

I don't want to miss it.

1. Funny no one complains about the extra hour in the fall.

[longship]

9. Then you try it after a fifth of bourbon!

Sheesh!

[Sherman A1]

2. We need an independent investigation

Oh, wait that is something else????

[Orrex]

3. I will withdraw my support if it's not legitmate.

[pkdu]

4. You missed it by exactly one hour! nt

[ret5hd]

5. Early or late?

[pkdu]

8. Both! nt

6. Since I retired, my hatred of DST has significantly abated

I would get to the office at a little after 5 am, so I always tried to go to bed early. That wasn't easy when it was still light out.

This will be my first DST switch since completely retiring. Now that I can stay up as late as I please and get up when it suits me, having a delay in the sunshine streaming though my window is kind of a welcome idea.

11. Same here,

The time would change for me during the commute on Sunday morning. It was a pain...

[longship]

7. Jump right in. The water's wet! ;) nt

[Blues Heron]

10. Do you want the sun coming up at two am????

well then you better change that clock!!

[True Dough]

12. I'm no fan of Daylight Savings

But I sure get tired of reading the hyperbole about the harm it can do. Lose an hour's sleep and all of a sudden people are having accidents and heart attacks all over the place?

Were none of these people ever parents, up half the night with their crying or sick children? None of these people ever lost an hour's sleep partying, or with indigestion, or because their neighbors were hooting and hollering past midnight?

Ridonkulous!

13. *&#@%@(*#&@

14. Trump lost an hour.

Figures.

[Laffy Kat]

15. Look, if ANYONE has a right to complain it's me.

Sundays I have to be at work by 6:15 a.m. and it's a 10-hour day for me. Spring forward-ing kills me. I have to go to bed, like, NOW. G'night.


Me tomorrow at 5:00 a.m.

[Squinch]

16. DST is OK. It's the corn flake chicken I can't stand.

[Boxerfan]

17. Won't somebody PLEASE think of the poor horologists....

Re- setting a dozen or more mechanical clocks is not an amusing task....

Both my wife & I love old clocks & lately I'm buying junker pocket watches off the bay to attempt a repair. So the real total of tickers is much higher than what my wife knows about
