'... ... now it is high time to awake out of sleep:
for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
The night is far spent, the day is at hand:
let us therefore cast off the works of darkness,
and let us put on the armour of light.
Let us walk honestly, as in the day;
not in rioting and drunkenness,
not in chambering and wantonness,
not in strife and envying.
But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ,
and make not provision for the flesh,
to fulfil the lusts thereof.'

(Rom 13:11b-14)

"And then the fight started"


When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed.

But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first, the shed, the boat,

making beer.. Always something more important to me.

Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point.

When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing

scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into

the house. I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again

I handed her a toothbrush.

I said, "When you finish cutting the

grass, you might as well sweep the driveway."

The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.
 
Curiosity begs a question.

In other countries are the clocks changed twice a year like in the US?
In Italy the clock is changed twice a year just like it is in the states.
In the spring....ahead one hour.
In the autumn....back one hour.

There's a six hour difference between Italy and NY.
Except for about two weeks when the time is changed because it's not synchronized.


There.
Everything you ever wanted to know...
AND
I'm the last one to post !

That's a Google question.
I live in the western USA.
Our state legislature has been debating dropping daylight savings altogether.

I begged them not to because I don't want a 4 am sunrise and a 7:30 sunset during the summer.

They don't grasp the there's a three hour light difference between winter and summer.

They could keep daylight savings and drop the other.

President Trump almost made one permanent... but backed out of that.

I, for one, hate it when it is dark at 7 AM...

Wonder if they could come up with a monthly change that would work year round to keep it more even?

Here that'd mean an 8:20 am sunrise during the winter.
That was actually tried back in the 70's.
It turned into an absolute fuster-cluck.

Me too.
I like 5 am, and 8:30 pm.

Work one out and let's discuss it.

Wiser people than me figured out daylight savings and look where we're at now.
