Did everyone remember to turn their clocks back an hour? |

Yup... would have enjoyed that extra hour as well, but some one (who will remain nameless) forgot to turn off the alarm before they went outside.... Talk about a rude awakening! _________________ Up or Down North, South, East, or West An Adventurer's Life is Best! |

Yup, an extra hour any day is a good day.

I turned ours back, but that doesn't mean I got an extra hour of sleep. In fact I got less worrying about the 177 Kronos clocks we have spread throught the organization. But I didn't hear anything from work, so I guess the August upgrade resolved the issue as it should have. _________________ [ |

Nope...I didn't I figured it could wait until today. I still need to do the ones in the kitchen...
Personally, I don't believe in Daylight savings Time and think there should be a rebellion or something to make it stop. If we just kept it the same no one would be the wiser and everyone would be a lot less confused in their sleeping patters twice a year.

So, if you are in line for a ride and it's a 60 minute wait, but then Daylight Savings kicks in, can you go to the front of the line?
Think about that. |

Since we turned the clocks BACK, you'd have to go to the END of the line. Sorry. _________________ When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

I see your point. Guess I'd better try that in the spring. |

Funny you should say that. That is my home state (go McCain!). Thing is, there is just too much blast sun. When there are no clouds for over 100 days...I become a little cranky...the trade off...cranky twice a year over the blast relativity of time!

Here it is Friday and I still have one clock in the living room I still have not
changed.
I keep looking at it while watching TV and say I should change it but then just
keep subtracting the hour off.
If I wait six months it will be right again. |

We have 2 clocks that we haven't changed yet, but they are in places that we don't see too often. And there may be more. I haven't been into the spare bedroom since the change. And somewhere at home I have to find the manuals for my running watch and my Mickey watch. It's sad when you need a manual to set a clock. _________________ [ |
