There is only one "S" in Daylight Saving Time, and today is the day.

I have three "atomic" clocks that set themselves, and one moved ahead around 9:00 last night. The other two haven't caught up yet.

One of the best new “standard” features on my jeep sets the clock to the correct time based on GPS time.

I only have a couple clocks that still need help Twice a year in the house.

And when the sheets are short, the bed seems longer.

That just shifts what the blanket covers, just like DST.

I have a Citizen watch that uses time signals to maintain the correct time. But it won't change for daylight saving time. For this the company emails a video showing which combinations of buttons to push and pull to change the time. It's a 15 minute process.

When my dog doesn't want to get up, you know DST is wrong.

Only one of my atomic clocks has changed its time so far. It sometimes takes a couple of days for them to catch up.

DST = Damn Stupid Time
I wish they'd do away with the time changes, and leave it the same all year long.

I haven't seen any official word on it yet, but I keep hearing that Illinois passed a law making it DST year round. So now we won't have to change the clocks again. (Unless the politicians get some other stupid idea.)
