Dont forget to set your clock!

Spring ahead/fall back, daylight saving time begins for most of the United States at 2 a.m. this Sunday---yea! the sun goes down an hour later!

Ugh! I could really use an extra hour of sleep this weekend. Monday is going to be rough.

I remember something about auto accidents increase the first Monday after DST starts. Everybody be careful!!

Ugh. I have to work Sunday morning. Normally I get up at 4:00 AM, now it's going to be 3:00.

If your only clock is your computer, no problem! Provided, of course, you let it do the time change automatically.

No, it's still 4 am, it's just that you skip the hour between 2 and 3.

What, pray tell, do you get up to do at 4 am on a Sunday morning?

I have to work the 6am to 4pm shift at the UIUC NOC. I have an hour commute, so I have to leave before 5am, that means getting up around 4am to shower, grab coffee, and go.

Not fun.

This be Ye a Foolish Waste of Energye

I never set it back in the Fall so I don't have to set it Forward in the Spring.

For those of you who did not think of this energy-saving scheme, go now and set your clock forward to where you shold have left it in the Fall.

There, now you don't have to bother with setting it Forward in the Spring !

Another Work-saving Idea from da
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOG
