Daylight saving time is pointless. What about the nights? You're making the nights shorter. Have night saving time! Some of us are mobsters or farmers.

Yea but don't you like the longer days? Night time will always get here eventually. Stay up an hour later then and make up for it. lol I don't know, to me, it's nice having longer days especially in the summer.

Can't come soon enough! I love the extended daylight hours. It's wonderful to be able to cook outside without a flashlight, sit out in the backyard after dinner. Just love it.

Hi TIS, I've been in hybernation. I poked my head out today to see if it was safe to come out. It's not I'm going back in. LOL

AZ ignores DST. The only net effect is to confuse our friends and relatives back East. Now they'll be three hours ahead of us, instead of two.

I don't like it. Spring forward indeed. I need the extra sleep!

I don't like DST because the extra hour of daylight burns the tomatos in my garden.

That's because you don't have it made in the shade.

I'm not crazy about losing the hour of sleep, but that extra hour of sunlight brightens the mood.

DST should be year-round! We need it during Winter more than anything, but noooooo.

It's well-worth "losing" an hour of sleep for more daylight!


I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

Wasn't DST extended during the G.W. Bush administration? I remember being very happy w/ that decision but am still not used to the March time change even after 4+ years.

Always find myself saying....

ALREADY!?!?

I was very happy that the duration of DST was lengthened. The best part was trick or treating and it was still daylight!

Edit: taking the kids trick or treating, lest someone think I'm a creeper.

On the clock the day is 23 hours instead of 24. If you choose to lose the hour of sleep that is entirely up to you. I will still sleep the same amount of time, so I actually lose an hour of my waking day. You only lose an hour if you have to get up at a specified time.....like for church on Sunday morning.

You bring up a great point. Ok so for the FBI men, who are probably reading this with great concern. That was a pedophile joke everybody! I am not a pedophile. I LOVE CHILDREN. Ok, that ought to calm them. However, if you can't laugh at a few off color pedophile jokes, you may need to loosen up and have a Manhattan.
