Default Daylight savings time

I don't like it, I wish we would just set the clocks ahead 1/2 hour and leave them alone.
Not only that , but Arizona has thrown a wrench into the system by not observing daylight savings time. and Hawaii also.
The time and lost production and aggravation of resetting clocks twice a year for business has got to be a huge pain.

Dammed time change has me all screwed up, not that it takes all that much to get me screwed up!

Post Church attendance was down.

We had about half the people as normal for church Sunday. A bunch came in at the Benediction.

Post Hawaii

Doesn't change the time. They have such little change in their daylight hours that it would be foolish to mess with the times. Alaska doesn't mess with times either, (I may be wrong on this one) but they have such big swings in their daylight it doesn't make much difference either.

Australia has half hour time change zones and the local joke is if ya go to Brisbane, you change to calendar 1920 and don?t bother with the time of day. I?m Ok with that concept.

1920 calendar, eh?

LOL!

If anybody doesn't have a 2007 calendar yet, or if you just wanna do something a little eccentric, you can use the following calendars this year:

1894

1906

1945

2046
