from a friend:
Okay everyone, this is something I've been quietly promoting for the
last few years and I really think it needs to catch on to a wider
audience, so I'm passing this on to all of you. As you hopefully know
by now, this weekend is the start of Daylight Savings Time. Typically
we roll our clocks forward at 2am Sunday Morning, thereby losing an
hour of sleep. This lost hour is obviously irrelevant since we're
just going to gain it back this fall when we get an extra hour of
sleep, so the government chose to take it at this time, in the middle
of the night, to minimalize its inconveniences. I think this is where
we can do better.
I'm proposing we all roll our clocks forward at 4:00 pm on the Friday
before Daylight Savings (today), thereby making it 5:00 pm, AKA:
"Quittin' Time". So everyone join in with me this afternoon, and
steal back that extra hour from Corporate America by observing
daylight savings time a little early. May I further suggest that with
that extra hour you go to a bar with a few friends, have a drink, and
make a toast to Spring Forward Friday.
Seriously, lets start a movement.
