What happens if you stay up late and are watching a movie at 2am when the time changes? Do you gain an extra hour of that movie you are watching or in Spring do they cut you off and put you right in the middle of the next show? I'm staying up tonight to see what happens :bdaybiggrin:
and what happens if your watching one of the "BACK TO THE FUTURE' movies? does it totally mess up the story line? i dont really want a Delorean crashing thru my family room.


ok...now this is gettin' silly!

Koi geneticist have developed a stunningly beautiful species that actually becomes very, very emotionally attached to their owners. When considering such a koi you really want to read the fine print before buying one. Seems this stunningly beautiful koi has a dark side. It gets jealous. Yes, jealous. Very jealous. I'm talking "Play Misty For Me" jealous. (Goggle "Play Misty For Me" if you are too young to remember that Clint Eastwood classic). If you show too much attention to your other fish it eats them! Often times the owner remains baffled about the missing fish. If the owner replaces the missing fish the stunningly beautiful koi leaves the new fish alone but eats YOU!! Then of course it eats the other fish for good measure. :)

I did stay up till 2am Lou and I was watching closely at the time Comcast has posted on the tv. For the show that started at 1am they had it listed as starting at 1am and ending at 1am. Our dvr box jumped immediately to 1am as soon as it hit 2am. There was no time warps or flashing of lights in the sky. What a disappointment! Took my Melatonin,pulled the skirt off my cat,put her to bed,collected the mushy alien creature off the counter,threw it outside and drug myself off to bed

I have had this site send me emails for a few yrs now and whenever there is any kind of crime w/in a few miles of our house I receive a message. Thought I'd share w/ you all. It may surprise you as to how much goes on around you. http://www.crimemapping.com/

Here is a sample of what I got today:

not there when they set the clocks back they sent them home an hour earlier .I guess they wanted to make sure the time clocks worked since they were new .There are a total of 9 buildings and 2 office buildings and since he works in the office building with all the printers they start there before the day shift shows up at 8:30 .He is office building 2 and office building 1 has no night shift .
