Id love to see Daylight Savings Time all fucking year.  Why do we need to keep changing the clocks?  Its so stupid.  There are several states that dont even go along with the time change and it doesnt seem to be a problem.  I hate getting to work Monday morning and seeing all the clocks the wrong time, and then I have my own 20 or so I have to set.

"Every year, my mother calls me up and reminds me to set my clocks back.  And she also identifies herself as my mother.  She says "Bob...it's your mom...don't forget to set your clocks back".  Like, who ELSE would possibly call me to remind of that??  Hey Bob, it's your 8th grade gym coach.  Mr. Cohen.  I know we haven't spoken in a while but, hey...set yer clocks back. Welp...gotta go now.  I have a lot of other people to call."

I live in Arizona, and we decline to participate in the national practical joke known as Daylight Savings Time. Does the government actually think that people who need daylight to do their work can't just adjust their own schedules?

I want a Metric Day of 100 hours, each divided into 100 minutes, and 100 seconds. Why? I have absolutely no idea.

wasn't daylight savings time, designed for the farmers? so that they would have a
extra hour od daylight to plant crops? my question is. why couldn't the farmers
adjust their time, instead of making us. i can never remember id i'm suppose to
change the clocks forward or backwards. it's such a pain in the ass.

People at work always say how much they like the extra hour of sleep in fall when the clocks are set back, until I point oit to them that it usually takes about an hour to figure out how to adjust all of the fucking clocks in the house.

I want everybody to have a different time system. We have Arizona already, so there's a start. Some people can even make up their own if they cant find one they like. Just to make things interesting.  My new time system will be based on a chicken named Cluckles in Missouri. Whenever he takes a shit, that qualifies as a minute.  <blockquote />

This is the last year we change it in April.. next year we do it a month earlier, or so I hear. Bush is that awesome, he has the power to change time.

You are correct, sir!Starting next year, Daylight Savings Time will begin a month earlier and end a month later.   2007 - March 11 - Nov. 42008 - March 9 - Nov. 22009 - March 8 - Nov. 12010 - March 14 - Nov. 72011 - March 13 - Nov. 6

Is this really something we have to argue about?I set a few clocks back or forward twice a year.The REAL fight is to get battery backups in small appliances like VCR's and TV's so when the power goes out, the fucking information like channel scans don't get erased.

Moe, you might want to update from 1985. I've never had to rescan channels when my power goes out.
