Hi, Jaguars fans!  Smile  Don't forget to move all your digital clocks one hour forward for this weekends Daylight Saving Time beginning by 2:00AM Eastern Standard Time. 

 

This DST will last for the next eight months, where all of us gain both an extra hour of daytime and daylight until November 1.  Enjoy!  :yes:  B) :thumbsup: Smile  ^_^

If only the warmth will come with it. 
I love Daylight savings time!!

Hate losing an hour of sleep, but I love being able to see the sunlight longer!

This is the busy season for me, after DST its not stop for about 8 months.

I wish they would just set the clocks forward 1/2 hour and leave it. This time change stuff really screws me up for awhile.

Why 1/2 hour? All we would need to do is just skip the DST spring forward and the time would be the same forever.

I don't think you guys realize what DST is. The day light saving is what's coming up, right now we are on the correct time. This Sunday is where we in the western world change the time the one in the fall is just setting the clock back to standard time.

I don't care what is, the time period coming up is the better one. It absolutely sucks seeing the sun go down at 5 pm.

I agree.  (4:15pm up here when it's at it's worst)  

 

There's actually a big spike in depression and even suicide during these times in upper Scandinavia where they experience the extreme version of sunshine deprivation. 

 

Some towns actually increase the price of alcohol to exorbitant levels during those months to combat suicide and depression among their citizens. 

Of course  ---  if you keep buying it  --  you've got even more to be depressed about.  :teehee:

Just to make everyone happy. I just hate the time change personally, regardless of which way it goes.
What is a "clock"? Is that an app?
Awesome. My kitchen clock will finally show the correct time again..
