Daaylight Savings Time

[SDBud]

Be sure to set your clocks back tonight when you go to bed.

The ONLY clock I have that doesn't set itself is the microwave, and THAT one doesn't matter, as the timer is all that's used, not the clock time.

Now please just do something about adopting the metric system and 24-hour clock. And maybe later start driving on the proper side of the road, it would be endless amusement.

Well, I noticed you didn't say to drive on the "RIGHT" side of the road, for obvious reasons, but hey, it's fun to be in the minority?

I agree on the metric thing, though y'all don't have much room to talk, "stone" anyone?

And how do you explain to the cat that he has to wait an hour for breakfast?

heh.

our dog was giving us some serious stink eye around "dinner time".

he didn't seem to like the daylight saving time explanation.

Expressing my weight in "stones"--a little easier to say--
especially if I mutter "stone" behind my hand . . .

i dunno why this has to be so complex. back in MY day....

Yeah I know... back in MY day I walked five miles to school even when it was snowing; and that was after I fed the cows and the chickens and helped my dad pull the truck outta the ditch.

What bothers me about setting the time on my microwave, I end up being in Child Lock Mode and have to pull the power cord and start over, and over.. My kids doesn't even live here. Jim

I thought the Right side of the road was the side Cars weren't coming at you in your lane. At work at night we drove our 150 ton back dumps of the left lane, it was safer as we could see the berm (It was a 80 foot drop off). We put out on the radios that we were diving English Rules, at 5 A.M. we had to revert back to the Right side, because the Day Boss came in, and they couldn't handle it. One morning two of us driving a pair of loaded back dumps had a day boss decide he was in suck a hurry he would pull out of a side road and get between us. I got on the radio and asked truck one if he saw that, and did he feel like a sandwich for breakfast. The boss got smart and pulled off the road.

You really don't want to be in the middle of two loaded haul trucks weighing 350 tons at 30 m.p.h lots of things can go wrong. Jim

I have 5 clocks in the house. One sets itself. Wish I had more of those. The microwave doesn't count because the stove clock is nearby. A couple of them set themselves, but the keurig coffeepot has a total FAIL for a clock. The clock is insane, and never comes within a couple of hours of showing the correct time, so I ignore it.

You forgot to mention the wind, and it was -20 degrees. You had it easy. Jim

I always wondered why Goodwill has so many CLOCKS . . .

Lucky me, my car updates itself.

I know, right?! Our dog wakes up crying at the OLD time!

NOT a problem for me there, BUT, on my cell, maybe, once or a dozen times..

My car clock is linked to my phone which is always the right time. Nothing to change.
