Yeah, last week.

No extra hour of sleep for me... my dog doesn't know what daylight savings time is, but he does know when he's hungry. :weep:

That's why I have no pets.

And leave the Eurotrash with nothing to moan about? Unthinkable!

Isn't irish dancing weird?
They dance moving only their lower body. They don't move nothing from the waist up. Not even their arms.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

We use to but then Bush changed it.

I say we can do away with this time changing BS. Sasketchewan has it right.

I think that's true for India as well.  Russia has like a dozen.

Learned in the same article that Russia used to have 11, but Medvyedev reduced them to 9.

Yep, changed my clocks! Remembered! Most of my clocks anyway. Amazing how many house and appliance clocks, wrist watches, car clocks, that I use!
