Daylight Savings TIme

Me too. I like little changes in life, just for the spice. An hour isn't that big of a deal, but it wrecks the dog's schedule. LOL.

 

I love living rent free in the minds of resident D&D libtards. I own them so badly they have to chase me down in unrelated threads to try to get their zings in.

 

Oh well, not much to do in the ice and snow that early anyway.

 

Except have kids wait for the school bus.

 

True, but you can't satisfy everyone in a country this big. I think the majority of Americans would rather just stay on DST. Maybe states up by Canada can just do their own thing.

 

Back when Nixon was president and there was an energy crisis, they passed a year round DST bill.

After 2 years, public support went way down and they reinstated standard time similar to the dates we have now.

 

I say don’t **** with my Feng shui

 

I hate standard time in the south. The north should just have their own. Damn Yankees. (Joking)

I think each state should decide on its own whether they want to make it permanent. I'd like it down here.

 

Nope. Indiana has observed DST since 2006.

 

Time to invest in sleeping pill/aid companies and addiction services.

 

But then at least they'll get to see the sun when they leave school/work instead of it being pitch black at 4:30.

 

I lived in Minnesota for 27 years. Pretty sure schools don't let out at 4:30 PM.

 

Hmm didn't know they changed it... I knew at what time they did not observe it,,, Thanks for the update...

I don't care either way, but what the...

The Senate's Daylight Saving Time Move Shocked Senators (buzzfeednews.com)

WASHINGTON — The Senate’s unanimous passage of a bill to make daylight saving time permanent stunned many Americans, not least of which the senators themselves.

In a twist the Founding Fathers likely did not anticipate, quirky Senate conventions and a decision by staff in Sen. Tom Cotton’s office may result in an overhaul in the nation’s time zones.

Reporters and politicos were caught off guard Tuesday afternoon when the Sunshine Protection Act sailed through the Senate without issue, with no senators speaking up to object to it passing by unanimous consent. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, serving as Senate chair overseeing the motion at the time, broke composure, burst into a grin, and whispered “yes!”
