Well my husband and son are in Milwaukee this weekend. They went to see the Black Crowes last night, then are going out on the Len-Der this morning. I did NOT turn back my clock so I wake up and think its 7:45 and think how they are probably boarding the boat. Then I get to the computer and see the correct time. Made me wonder how many divers are getting to enjoy an extra hour in the Water St parking lot this morning. Heckova lot better than missing the boat though, isn't it?
I had a few time change screw-ups during the spring change when we turned the clocks forward. Getting the kids to Sunday School when it was ending, an hour late to a birthday party, stuff like that. A little embarrassing but funny now that I look back at it.

Thank goodness for computers and cellphones - they always know the right time. :)

I haven't had enough coffee to adjust me clocks yet. The VCR and the computer have the correct time, but everythng else is wrong (including the cell phone- who would have thought that the VCR is automatic and the cell phone isn't?)
I try to get them all at once, but inevitably, there are a few that I forget.

My cell phone didnt update itself until about 8 this morning. I thought I was right, and then when it updated, I finally knew I was right for thinking what I thought I thunked.

I tried to change the clock in my hotel room this morning.....couldn't make it chance. I set the alarm as usual. Woke up at 4 and checked the clock, it had changed itself. Pretty cool clock.

You talking to me?
If so, they got blown out. All my husband said about the concert, was that it was LOUD.

Hi Sinker-
Welcome to the board. So, you were trying to get out on the Len-Der Sunday as well?

Could be worse guys, you could live in IN!! Most of us don't change times but next year we will. What time zone will be in during all this?..tell us and we will all know. God bless our governor, or better yet..SHOOT HIM!!!

What's worse is that from what I understand, we've passed a bill to move the dates. Think about it, your computer, your PDA, your GPS, etc, etc, etc will now be screwed up. This is going to be a real headache...
