I don't much care what time it is either except the dog gets her meds at
7am sharp. So I set the clocks. Except for the DVD player. I forgot how
to do it.

Was the DVD one that reset a couple of weeks ago? It should be the
correct time today.

I noticed (at least a week ago) that the website for our virtual weather
station (the weather station is in our backyard) displayed an hour earlier
than real time. All's OK now.

Thanks.

Apparently Congress was successfully lobbied by candy makers to push the
date later by a week to allow the tyke's daylight trick or treating.
Someone could have let everyone else know. My PC set the time back last
weekend. I set it forward again, then when it came time to change it again
I set it to OOOPS! P.M.

Wasn't half the fun of trick or treating waiting for dark to go out and
scare the heck out of each other? Oh, and carrying flashlights when there
wasn't a power outage 😉

My cell phone clock changed automatically.

Mine didn't; thanks for reminding me.

Would prefer a watch showing real-time left to live. Would change
based on circumstances. --yy:dd-- (--years:days--) Turn the corner
into a mugging -- 00:00--. Back around --32:35--. Go to IRAQ:
--00:18--, stay in school -- 95:20--.

That's a good basis for a fantasy story, I think.

We've got a big double-sided clock in downtown Austin. Whoever
changed it was only looking at one side of it when they changed
it as the other side is an hour fast.

Having read too many of Jill's posts, she's actually serious in
case anyone was wondering.

OT: Mary, what brand/model do you have.

We have a Davis Instruments Vantage Pro (http://tinyurl.com/2zno24). It
displays the current temperature, dew point, humidity, wind direction, heat
index, rainfall so far that day, YTD rainfall, high and low temperatures for
the day, etc. The info is delivered via Ambient Weather's Virtual Weather
Station to a website that Hubby set up (he's a serious weather geek...).

Thanks so much, Mary. I will look at that carefully. I'm not yet a weather
geek, but I want to buy 'once' only.

I want to set up my own weather station and website for it, too. I see only
one in my immediate area - about 10-20 miles away, but more towards the
mountains.

When I look at the different sites, I see that Davis is often used.
Thanks.

Sleeping? Feh!! "Time change" means nothing to the cats who know only
"play" and "eat," and to the dog for whom accustomed "out" time remains
static.

<which is why dairy farmers observe "old time" and "new time" for milking>

Why do things by halves? Turn back your calendars!!! I set mine back 10
years and now my back doesn't hurt any more.

I had a phone call last week with a recorded message from the power company
that we would have power outage for routine maintenance this morning some
time between 8 and 10am this morning. Not a problem for me. I have a riding
lesson at 9 am, which means leaving the house at 8:15 to give me time to
drive there and get tasked up. The last few times I got the warning the
power never went off until after I was gone.

I had set my clocks back last night and got up at 7:10am. I had my
breakfast, went online, checked email, did a few crosswords. I went
upstairs at 8 am to get cleaned up. Too late..... the power went off at
8:02. When I got home three hours later it was back on, but I had to go
around and rest all the clocks.
