If you set your clock back an hour tonight and you have a battery operated alarm clock, you'll be late for church by an hour or two. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have showed up for Sunday School just in time for church and been embarrassed. Just updated all my clocks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it still beneficial in this day and age? My wife always calls me Einstein, I figure that is because of the solutions to problems I invent? Who knows, but anyway... I will use Albert for short to describe the perceived benefits of that extra hour. Going to where I think I have the manuals for my digital microwave, oven, nightstand clocks, digital wristwatch clock manuals, to reset the times. Getting to that room, forgetting why I came to that room in the first place? Going back to the original room to remember why I ended up where I was, oh yeah that's right! I cannot find where I put them so I would not forget where they were. Who needs manuals anyway, I'll start with the propane electronic range with all those neat beeping buttons? I'm going to town pressing all the buttons, the convection blower, bake, over clean seem to be turning off and on? Maybe I need my glasses to see the writing on those 14 buttons? Now, where are my glasses? Rinse and repeat finding myself in different rooms? So far, I'm well over that hour with nothing accomplished with the oven. Now, not having the correct time to set anything, where do I go to get the correct time? Albert, think, think! From here it's exactly a thirty-minute drive to the nearest gas station, 30 + 30 = one hour. I'll drive there and get the correct time and add one hour to the clocks when I get back. Brillant! I cannot tell you what time yet, but I'll let everyone know how my solutions turn out. Wait a minute, does Indiana recognize daylight savings time or not? Do I need to reset my digital car clock for this to work? Where's my instruction manual to set my car clock first? Now, where are my glasses? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think that the time set is silly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont need an alrm clock as I wake around 3 am anyway the only time I have to manually set is the clock in my car . There is always talk of doing away with the "summer time" but so far it has not happened because of some notion that it is safer for children going to and from school .... they apparently go straight to school but linger on the way home ( yeah right ) It is already light by 5am here so I like the clocks going forward as I dont waste so much time / daylight waiting for the swimming poolto open and I get more time /daylight at the end of the day but then as I said I am awake by 3am anyway as I need very very little sleep Now all we need is the sun and some warmth to go with the extra morning hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
