Is this the week that we set our clocks back? |
|
I know there used to be a good reason for changing the time, but seriously, don't you think it has served its purpose? What is the point in changing the time now? I think the time has come to just leave it alone! :-)

3. Yes this weekend we go back to regular time |
|
We're an hour ahead right now.
I don't know if it still does, but besides giving farmers more daylight, it used to also tie into using less electricity in the evening.
I don't mind it. I love it when it's 9:40pm and it's STILL light outside. :D

I like the change. Keeps things from being dull.
Exact timekeeping is relatively new in human history. Time zones are barely a century old.

9. Gawd, I hate winter time |
|
It's freaking dark when I get up! Makes me feel like it's still the middle of the night.
I'll tell you something else, fellow New Englanders, I think we're in for a ton of snow this winter, seeing how rainy the summer was. I'm way glad I locked in my oil price!
