No one can give me a compelling reason why we are forced to change our clocks twice a year. I say we abolish this nonsense, or at least split the difference by half an hour, and leave it alone.
But, in lieu of that, I thought we could have a music thread for Saturday night featuring time-themed songs. I'll start it out with Simon and Garfunkel's, "Hazy Shade of Winter."
Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is - Chicago
I once had the time change on my birthday. I was gypped out of an hour on my birthday, and I don’t know where to go for reparations.
You can always move to Arizona, I hear tell they do not have or even understand DST!!!!
That’s it! :-D
Keith - Daylight Savings TIme
Tyrone Davis - Turn Back The Hands Of Time
Chambers Brothers Time Has Come Today
Zombies - Time Of The Season
Culture Club - Time (The Clock Of The Heart)
HAHAHAHAHA!!!
Listening to it now, I realize just how damn good of a band they were before the syrupy ballads took over.
“No one can give me a compelling reason why we are forced to change our clocks twice a year.”
How about: because.
The Chambers Brothers! Great one!
Because... Diabeetus.
Nobody is forcing you.
You can have 'em slow, fast, whatever you want.
Granted, you'll be out of sync with the rest of the country and maybe
miss important stuff and get fired but hey, that's up to you.
The boofalo that don't run with the herd gets et first.
Just sayin'..
I hated it! I would be gigging in Cleveland, gigs were from 8pm until 2am. That’s a long, long gig. The time would change, and the bar owner loved it! One more hour to sell drinks. But a 7 hour gig? Exhausting!
every year I swear Im gonna ORGANIZE a bunch of people who want to be rid of Daylight savings time...write the simplest of state proposisitons...such as
California shall recognize Standard Time ..[ year round} or something of that nature..
Every year....I let it slide...
it will be weeks before Im used to “daylight savings time
Or it could be Time in a Battle
