Daylight Sunday!

Guaranteed to put you to sleep faster than Ben Stein reading the periodical table of elements!
This is just your friendly, neighborhood reminder to those of y'all in the US that we'll be gaining an hour on Sunday, so set your clocks back and enjoy the extra little bit of a snooze!
It's finally cooled down enough here that it's not cold, but it's not blistering hot, so I can pick up my usual winter past time of riding again. Woohoo!
Those of you who've been friends with me for awhile knows that riding season amounts to broken toes and permanent scars fairly frequently = P
Yar har! But what's another battle wound to have admired and maybe someday kissed better, eh? ;D
Winter also means sucking down ricola and hot chocolate, but not at the same time! Gross!

^_^ lol that's awesome.
Well, have fun and try not to get thrown too often. :D
And for sure on those scars. The more there is the more to kiss. I think I still have mine from the ride on the beach in Texas.
ahh did I send you the picture of El Rancharrow Siggums riding with PASSION and SAND in my hair along the warm sun set beaches of México.. with my puffy hair : P
I thought it waasss lasst weeekk, but you guys changed it, then weee had to change it to bee US friendly DD: so confused
Sorry, I just despise the incorrectly named Daylight Savings Time scam and the time and money wasted by it. I suppose it's a good thing that they can't really legislate physical laws like that, one set of fantasy novels had a reality where a mages council actually could and did legislate the laws of reality, and it was so beaurocratic that they made it a physical law what kind of clothing barbarians wore, what one's roll in life was and options for changing class, if any, and even that an adventuring party on a quest had to have certain classes of people, including one traitor, in the make-up.
Prior to the early 1800s and the widespread building of railroads, all across the world, for the most part what time it was a local matter in every single town on earth, and generally anyone who had a watch or a clock had to change the time on it monthly to match noon on the local sundial (Only large cities kept a standard time based on large, central clocks, and most of those got changed to better suit the time of sunset at least twice throughout the year, too). And, it makes obvious sense that local times such as I just mentioned would have been universally closer to daylight savings time than they would have been to keeping the same time all year.
The actual time in which sunlight hits any part of the earth, and when, isn't actually -changed- by daylight savings time, you know? And furthermore, for every single consumer-based business in a part of the world that observes it, daylight savings time saves money / improves their earnings by allowing both their employees, and their patrons, to be at work during productive hours.
Keeping the sunset as close to the same clock time as possible, which is what daylight savings time effectively does, is a convenience that outweighs the piddling trouble of remembering to change your clock twice a year, in my opinion. If there's actually a money wasting scam to it, I'd love to hear how that works?
Good luck with riding season. I hopes you have a great time enjoying the horses. I also hope the scars aren't too bad this year. And if your toes get broken, you know you can always call me down there and I'll work my magic on those hot feet of yours.
Take care of yourself and little tadpole as well. I hope he's still doing good, what with the weather turning cooler and all.
The computers attend to themselves, thanks.
