Yes, it's that time again: the mythical capture of time as mankind fools itself by playing with a familiar gadget-the clock. So, tonight, after we are long abed, everywhere clocks will leap forward at 2am , officially. Thereby, most of the modern world's inhabitants will wake up Sunday morning a little less perky; a little less ready to workout at the gym, work in the garden(those that are not snow covered still, like in New England). The Mayor was in the garden yesterday, pulling weeds.
Winter is still on the calendar for another couple of weeks-see temps in Northeast. Here in the West, we've given up on winter and have accepted another dry winter season, waiting for the inevitable brow beating by zealous pols, and zealous scolds, and zealous farmers, and zealous environmentalists, and zealous water agencies, and, and, and and, and it gets tiresome, really. Face it: we live in a desert much of the time and abundant rainfall is not the norm. If you wish for that situation, move to Portland or Seattle(not so much really).
Enough. Move your clocks forward 1 hour whenever; then back on November 1st. have a nice day.
