It always used to be April. Next year, we're gonna turn the clock ahead in the dying days of winter.

Yeah, congress now thinks it has the power to add daylight to the world. These dummies actually think that we are going to save energy by manipulating the clock.

During this idiotic discussion I wish I could have had time on the floor of Congress to shout, "There's still the same amount of daylight, you morons!".

maybe we can trick congress into extending DST longer and longer every year, until it lasts for the entire year.
we can say it's for the CHILDREN!
then, we won't have to change our clocks twice every year.

If we're going to have Daylight Saving Time, it's probably better to move the Spring change out of the Easter season into late March -- it is always an extra annoyance when the start of DST coincides with Easter Sunday.

Which lead my "wise" daughter to once ask, "Dad, if Daylight Savings happens on Easter, does that mean that Jesus has to rise an hour later?"
