Set your clocks back in 4 days and 14 hours.
Or don't and be less confused (and fatigued) compared to everybody else. :P

1. We move them back 45 minutes, correct?
I think that was part of the change by Congress.

3. Ah, yes you do!
In the Spring, you move Mountain Standard Time to Pacific Daylight Time. In the Fall, you move back to Mountain Standard Time.

So you gotta turn the clocks back an hour for the time-zone change, then ahead an hour for the DST change! It's TWICE as much work!!!!!!


I'm series!!!!11!!!!!


:rofl:

4. Huh?
That sounds like something a freeper would have said at some time.
Hey! You're not one o' them are ya? :P


The only problem here with not changing the clocks is that some of the cable stations don't adjust for that fact and shows will start an hour earlier or later depending on the season.

5. I think a freeper...
would have called you a seperatist commie pinko unamerican dirtbag and prayed for your demise, "'cuz Daylight Savings is 'Merkin!!!!!!!11!!!!!1111!!!".

Probably with a whole host of new and intesting misspellings :-)

that's assuming they notices the fact that you change time zones at all...

6. I only have atomic clocks so I don't have to rely on memory.
Except for the car, which will probably take a week for me to remember and another week to figure out how to change it.

Regards, Mugu
