Daylight savings time

back in February I seen where the house (I think) voted to do away with daylight saving time but haven’t heard anything else has anyone else?

I hope so. It's ridiculous.

If you cut off the bottom of a blanket and add it to the top...….why would you think the blanket is now magically longer??

It's to protect the children....

Longer no, but if I need more blanket at the top, it works out pretty well

Just goes to show how easy it is influence a group of sheeple.

(Stupid, stupid people!)

I think we should just have them 'turn up' the sun. Then, there'd be no need for the blanket.

(I bet I could actually convince some folks this is possible....)

When I had an 8-5 job, I really liked having the extra daylight after work to spend time with the wife and kids outdoors in warm weather.

Despite the snarky comments, most folks do.

I've seen this analogy used so many times and it is the most ridiculous analogy and highly inaccurate. In all actuality the blanket shrinks. Now since you wear a shirt at night but no pants or socks you move the blanket down to cover your feet. And in my profession I actually like daylight savings time as it means I don't have to go to work in the dark. Yes, by the end of my work day it is either dusk or dark, but would rather it be dark at the end vs in the morning when I have a higher chance of trying to find a pedestal in the dark (and since homeowners try to hide them spotting them in daylight is tricky, trying to do so in darkness is much harder).
