No time travelling...but don't forget to change your clocks this weekend. Also, you may need to download a patch for your computer or PDA to assure all gets updated appropriately.

Yes, but this will be a whole hour change. Grant it, while under the influence, I've lost HOURS at a time.

Fuck yes.

One of the worst days of the year is the time change in the Fall. Nothing like leaving work at 5:30 in darkness. The bright side is that extra hour at the bar on the Saturday it changes.



So much nicer leaving work for a drink and being able to sit outside in daylight for 3 more hours.

Agreed -- ESPECIALLY this time of year. Prime deck-sitting/marg-swilling weather.

Yes. It has to be done sometime and better to be done when most folks are asleep.

This just in: Every now and then February has 29 days.

It's just that I had plans at 2:43 on Sunday morning. I don't know what I'm going to do now.
