Spring ahead into the mall

Daylight Savings Time starts this Saturday night/Sunday morning - don't forget to set your clocks ahead an hour. This is the time change that makes you late, so watch out.

Of course, it's all political, this DST nonsense. I like the extra light after work, but it was JUST getting to the point where it was adequately sunny in the morning to perk me up when the alarm goes off. We'll be right back to getting up in the dark now. Anyway, though, it's political - people shop more in the light and the extra light drives people to the stores and the Chamber loves DST and the economy needs it, etc, etc. Alright, I guess. But even the farmers don't love it - and I thought they were part of the original reason for DST. Oh well.
