Time Rollback in U.S.A and Canada

[Walden]

Daylight Time ends in a few hours in those regions unfortunate enough to observe it in North America.

Daylight wasting time begins. We all become cave dwellers never to see the sun except when squinting our way across the street for a sandwhich at lunch time.

Actually, DST ends at 0200 Sunday morning. We are going back to real time.

Just say, "Thank yuh, Mista Bush."

Winter daylight hours are short, no matter what time you start counting, so unless you work a 4 hour day, you're apt to be using your headlights to or from work, or both, for a while anyway.

And heck, it's only been like this for a few decades, guys, you'll get used to it.

This is too funny not to share, even if you don't know the original hymn:

Too true!

For those who have some familiarity with Anglican church music, the tune (Cwm Rhondda) is the one to which "Guide me, O, thou great Jehovah/Redeemer" is sung.

That's usually the hymn sung to that tune in other denominations, as well.

Love the tune Redwolf!

Here it seems that on the Sunday the time changes, either forward or back, we have a smaller group at church. I understand the spring one, but not when we've got an extra hour. Maybe they just can't handle change.

Lucky for me time stays the same all year round!

[Cynth]

You are lucky. I have a clock that automatically resets itself, but it was built to reset at the old Daylight Savings Time time. So it changed two weeks ago. Then some clocks drive me mad when I try to figure out how to change them so I give up and try to remember if they are ahead or behind. If I fix them, then I forget that I've fixed them and still add or subtract an hour. It's a real mess.

[Charlene]

I wish we would just settle on a time and leave it alone. I hate changing the clocks twice a year. Always have, always will. That said, I like the "fall back" better because we get an extra hour to sleep in.

I don't observe it in my apartment. All my clocks have the old time.

I always thought that clock stores must hate the day.

I hope your employer doesn't have a problem with your non-observance.

None of them do.

hey, i got that same clock. #$%^

[missy]

yeah- my bedroom clock did that. And of course, didn't reset itself today. Had to look at my phone to know what the heck time it really was.

Now, to remember how to change the clock in the car.....

(our microwave NEVER has the correct time, it's just too darn confusing to change it. I just unplug it and let it sit at 0:00)
