Default I hate time changes

I hate all time changes. Not just DST, but all changes. I don't have an internal clock, or if I did, the battery died, so that's not it. In school, it always used to mess me up that the Russian October Revolution was in November and I was never sure if there had been one or two revolutions the previous winter.

And I don't adjust well. Here it's been the Year of the Ox for about a month and a half and I'm still writing Year of the Rat on all my checks. I'll sleep in tomorrow and maybe change the individual clocks when the situation arises. Hell, I'm retired. I don't have to be anywhere.

I like your style Muncle!!! LOL

Is there a valid reason why we still have to mess with our clocks twice a year? The whole thing seems totally insane to me.

Why dont they just leave the dang clocks alone. Noone and I mean noone likes the getting dark thing at 4:00 O'clock in the afternoon.

Not too many things ruffle my feathers but this time change makes me want to pluck them ALL OUT!!!
