With daytime high temperatures only getting up to maybe +20 f, it doesn’t really feel like spring, but spring ahead we did.
Setting the clocks ahead in the spring and back again in the
fall is more like a ancient ritual left over from when nixon was
president. Arizona and Hawaii are the
only states I can think of that do not participate in this ritual. I am with them!
Sunday morning I thought I would
start with the analog clocks. That seemed like the easiest thing to do. Just
spin the big hand ahead one hour. That was more than any human should have to
do on a below 0 Sunday morning before Koffee.
The digital ones are tougher, you
always have to remember how to reset them, and the car I saved that for Monday
morning, and the bike can wait.
The people who make the rules
aboot the time change. The GOMERENT! Say you ought to change the batteries on
your smoke doctors when you reset the clocks.
Those original equipment
batteries are impossible to find.
Cleaning out the computer inbox seemed like a better idea anyway. Then I found this in a dusty old file....
Those words. Even the current president who a few years ago won the Nobel Peace Prize couldn’t say anything close to that, and those wealthy white men running for the nomination in IKE's political party couldn't find peace even with all the gold in the world.
Why do we put up with this war crap?
