    Changed the microwave clock and a battery operated clock.

    The truck is now the correct time. ( should check internet for instructions but . . )

    My computer did it's thing.

     

    No stove, no clock

    No DVD in use, no clock

    No cell phone : who cares what they do.

    When summer comes : I will have to check a watch that I carry for my clients that are on hourly billing.

    I NEVER actually change my clocks. Wasted effort. I just mentally adjust the time on those VERY VERY rare times I actually look at a clock. And about the only time I do that is to make sure I am not late for the post office closing. I get a laugh when they say we "lose" an hours sleep. No we don't - I get just as many hours one way as the other. Which is why I rarely look at a clock.

     

    I eat when I'm hungry, I sleep when I'm tired. Clocks are just an affectation I ignore.

    Gawd - none of this makes sense up here, but we have kind of a Hobson's choice - sunrise at 9:00 a.m., or sunrise at 4:00 a.m.  (depending on the season).

     

    However, it stays light late in the summer here, and that's nice.  For those of us who pursue outdoor sports, gardening, etc., it's like having a whole extra day after the work day.

    That means my truck clock will be right.

    My 1996 truck never had a manual to set the clock and I don't want to check the internet :D)

     

    Just have to change the microwave clock.

    Car clocks should count as 2, they are very hard to program, microwave too.

    My car clock is easy it has 2 little pinholes marked H & M lol

     

    Now the microwave I can usually do after a few tries and my memory of what to press when kicks in, but I've NEVER been able to program the **bleep** oven clock.

    Agreed. Also my stove clock is confusing and it’s not a fancy stove (is there such a thing?).

    Ahhh wasn't he fantastic?

    @wastingtime101 

    Perfecto, Rolling stones? Wasn't there an old 60s hit where they just said " Time"....."Time" and a few drums beating...can't for the life of me remember who that was.

         2 bedroom clocks done, now outside.

    How about Pink Floyd's 'Time' from the 70s?

    'Time Has Come Today' by the Chambers Brothers. The part you're talking about comes in around the 2-minute mark, of the 11-minute epic masterpiece.

    I forgot and since I dumped cable, I don’t have the dvr that automatically changes the time. It took me a while this morning to realize I had to set the clocks. I hate time changes.

    So if DST becomes permanent does it still remain DST or is it now the new ST?

    If the law does not pass till after DST ends do the clocks change with the passage of the law or do we change the next time DST, or the new ST, takes effect in 2024?
