Gentlemen, Change Your Clocks

[Jolly Amaranto]

Remember, tonight/Sunday morning here in the USA, you HAVE to stay up until 2:00 AM to set every clock in your house and garage back to 1:00 AM to celebrate the end of Daylight Savings Time for 2022. So drag out all those manuals for your car, the microwave, DVR, VCR (if you still have one), answering machine, digital desktop clock/thermometer and TV because you will probably need them. Your "smart" phone and computer usually take care of themselves.

Some of us have our own alarm clocks.......

Admittedly, I’m not really paying attention but I thought that Congress eliminated daylight savings time last year(??)

The cars are the worst. The owners manuals are dog-eared to the clock settings.

This one doesn't have automatic dst setting.

I think we still have to "Spring Ahead" one more time and then never change from then on. If that is true, then next Fall in 2023, we will do nothing.

Groan...imposed so we who don't fly can also experience jet lag.

No such law has been passed.

This change is easy. It's the spring forward change that sucks.

I'm looking forward to the next spring forward, hopefully, being the last. (It's not a done deal yet). The Senate passed it, but Congress has not.

I'll go to sleep tonight with my clock in my hand.

I guess the Senate passed the Sunshine Protection Act of 2021 but the House is still setting on it.

I have nowhere to be that requires me to be on anything other than Flatbutt time.

I'm pretty sure that you'd be just as likely as me and my missus to still have a pup that didn't care that the time changed. I saw a passing on Facebook the other day for puppies, but we are not ready.

I set all my clocks to EFT (Eastern Flatbutt Time)....

You sir, are responsible for my tardiness

My mom always said spring forward, fall back.

[KFC911]

^^^^ when your seasons are a bit off...

Spring back and fall forward!

Tardiness does not exist in Flatbutt time. We arrive precisely when we intend to,
