 The 2nd Sunday in March is approaching and that means Daylight savings time comes into effect this weekend, set all clocks ahead 1 hour before you go to bed this Saturday. If you happen to be up at 02:00hrs on Sunday morning you can do it then as that is the official start time for DST.  You might also want to start going to bed a little bit earlier than normal over the next few days. That way when next week comes around you probably won't be found suffering from body clock shock.  I always like to get the longer days back as it shows that winter is on the way out.  (Although with the colder than normal weather pattern we are having spring is probably going to be late this year, it may not start warming up for another 6 to 8 weeks.)

I'm ready. Somehow I doubt the late spring thing though. It has been chilly, but patterns rarely seem to factor into weather around here.

Heard it on the radio, while I was out doing some running around.

Is there even a point to use DST anymore? It's pretty much worn out its welcome mat.
I understand that scissors can beat paper, and I get how rock can beat scissors, but there's no way paper can beat rock. Paper is supposed to magically wrap around rock, leaving it immobile? Why can't paper do this to scissors? Screw scissors, why can't paper do this to people? Why aren't sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they attempt to take notes in class? I'll tell you why, because paper can't beat anybody; a rock would tear it up in two seconds. When I play Rock-Paper-Scissors, I always choose rock. Then, when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper, I can punch them in the face with my already clenched fist, and say, "Oh sorry, I thought paper would protect you."
