So let’s just go straight in: I am calling upon all nine readers of MTD.com to call your Congressthing and demand an end to Daylight Saving Time. Or standard time, whichever you choose.
Couldn’t we just pick one and stick with it, like parts of <a href=”http://thefuntimesguide.com/2005/04/indiana_time.php”> Indiana</a> used to do?
I saw the little teaser in the paper the other day: “An Extra Hour of Sleep,” and I said to myself “Extra hour of sleep, my &^%,” or maybe I said “my $#@,” I can’t remember.
We were up so early we had to wait for the paper to hit the door.
No one with young kids ever gets an extra hour of sleep. Here’s how that works. Turn the clock back. Seven o’clock becomes six, sunshine-through-the-kids’-windows wise.
Kids being like<a href=”http://www.webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/b.html”> chickens</a>, sun’s up, they’re up.
It’s 6:02 a.m., what’s for breakfast?
Breakfast, the BBC Overnight is still on.
Yeah, everyone else is getting an extra hour of sleep.
We’re up, saving daylight.
