i think there would be less depressed people if there was more sunlight.

I never did understand how there's any "savings" during daylight savings... it just gets lighter and stays lighter LATER... not any more.

Nope, it just gets pushed back a couple of weeks, and ahead a few weeks in Spring.
Well that doesn't help ME !! I WANT MORE SUNLIGHT !!!
AND I WANT IT NOW !!! Oh by the way, have I told anyone how much I hate winter? My family gets so tired of me whining.

I'd like some cheese with my whine, please.

I'm printing your post for conversation tonight ........

"See, honey, I'm not the only one........."

Glad to be of service !!

Yeah, but see, we don't want to have to get up earlier.
Or move up to northern Alaska for that all-day sun. brrrrrrrr

And it DOES get cold here in Tennessee....shoot, I remember a few years ago we had to wear winter coats. yeah, shoot.

Can I add one bit of advice? Please, PLEASE change the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors at the same time you change your clocks. Even if you think your smoke detectors are electric, there are batteries in them.
I hate to think about burned BNr's.

I do! It wasn't that long ago that most of Indiana didn't even observe daylight savings time

hey I've done a few gigs at Cedar Lake.

It finally dosent effect me really any more but it is just a pain to do the whole hour difference between someone only 20 miles away. Course with Gov Mitch at the helm, any county can observe any time they want!! Classic!

Welcome to the hick state

That means more time to do those things that I like to do in the dark.
