Set Your Watches Back!

Hey everyone! Don't forget to set your clocks back one hour this Saturday night! That's right. It's that time again. If you remember, it was in October but that has been changed to the first Sunday in November at 2:00am. Now, there is really not many excuses for being late to church this Sunday, since you will get an extra hour of sleep if you want it. Here's an idea: Don't set your clock back and get up to the same time as it now is and that will cause you to be on time for church. When you get there on time and maybe before some of the others, the pastor will be all smiles to see you, and you can give him your biggest smile and walk right on into the church with your shoulders held high, just like you knew all the time what you were doing.

Personally, I would rather leave the time alone. Throw the daylight-saving idea out the window. It doesn't matter how early or late we get up and go to bed, nor does it matter how early or late we arrive or leave our work place. There will still be a predetermined amount of daylight and darkness. There will still be 24 hours in a day. Oh, I've heard the argument for it, but there are also some good arguments against it as well. I think the idea was thought up by some federal employee who had too much free time on his hand, and to make himself appear busy (so as not to loose his job because of idelness) he thought up this 'ingenious' idea. Well, it gives us older and hopefully wiser persons something to blog about. Besides, If everybody did everything my way, what would I have to do?

Get prepared for the winter! It's comming! Burrrrrrr!!

I agree with you. I wish whoever has the authority would just set the time and leave it alone.
