Well, first night with the earlier sunset, and I'm already pissed.  [bang]
Woohoohoohoo! Two personal records! For breath holding and number of sharks shot in the face.

Yea.  Tell me about it.  I went for a ride this afternoon and had to re-plan my route because I suddenly remembered that it was going to get dark at 5 PM.  It sucks but at least we got a little extra DST this year.  :-\

What country is HI in these days?
"Once you accept that a child on the autistic spectrum experiences the world in

Well, actually it is not a Law. Several counties in Indiana do not observe DST.
