Some people think I am lucky that Arizona does not observe daylight savings time and we don't have to change our clocks. Well, adjusting to the rest of the country is still a pain.
First, a lot of electronic devices automatically adjust for daylight savings time now. I have to go around twice a year and un-adjust the clocks!
Then there is television. NFL early games had been starting at 10:00am...starting tomorrow, they begin at 11:00am. Regular prime time network schedules do not change. However, I get the east coast feed on my Directv so ALL cable shows suddenly have their start time moved an hour later! Fortunately, the DVR records at the new times, so I only have to worry about shows I might watch live.
Finally, I have to remember the change when I call friends and families in other time zones.
So set your clocks back tonight, but don't envy us Arizonans!

Here's the solution! Let's just convert to ZULU time.
It upsets a lot of people, including these.
It's another of my pet peeves. Really screws up my internal clock - something that will be mentioned at the Airing of Grievances.
When told the reason for Daylight Saving time, the old Indian said ...
'Only a white man would believe that you could cut a foot off the top of a blanket and sew it to the bottom of blanket and have a longer blanket'.
