Spring Forward

 

1. There’s a story in the Indianapolis newspaper that the bars serving the NCAA fans are pissed off about losing one hour of booze-serving time on Sat/Sun. Sounds reasonable to me.

2. My poor husband…
   He flies home from deployment this weekend (deployment cut short for a handful of the squadron. Why? I dunno. But I ain’t asking. He’ll be HOME)
   They ALREADY had Daylight Savings Time switch where he was.
   He’s due home Sun afternoon.
   I have a feeling it’s gonna take a few days for him to get his internal clock back to normal....

6. SEE MY COMMENT # 1—BIG NEWS!!

   Final Four revelers can toast their teams after 2 a.m. this Sunday after all.
   
   
   Gov. Mitch Daniels issued a statement today saying that bars, restaurants and taverns can change their clocks an hour after daylight-saving time kicks in at 2 a.m. Sunday.
   The time change—at which all clocks turn ahead one hour—had meant that the bars would lose an hour of business, as last call is at 3 a.m.
   “Most of us will set our clocks ahead before we go to bed. They can do it when they’re locking up for the night,” said Daniels. “And, by the way, we won’t take way the extra hour they’ll get when we fall back in October.”
   Daniels said the Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission will not enforce alcohol license laws until 3 a.m. that night, and asked that local law enforcement use “the same common-sense approach.”

7. Over here “British Summer Time” started last week. I wish they would leave the clocks alone. The excuse for this nonsense is the sweaty socks (Scottish aka jocks) who live in the great white north. If they didn’t adjust the clocks they would live in perpetual twilight. Or so they claim. Personally I think it’s a price worth paying!
