Cranky old man
Someone once commented to me that there's no point in being an old fart unless you get to be old and farty. With that in mind i just want to point out that daylight savings time really should end in early October. I know the clock says 8am, but my body doesn't want to hear it.
UPDATE: Well, according to the New York Times, it's the candy maker's fault that DST was extended into the Halloween season. Makes sense to me. (And yes, as far as i can tell, her name is really Jennifer 8. Lee. Don't ask what the 8 stands for.)

Since 1949, Durhamites have slept soundly, secure in the knowledge that, in our town, erection can be depended upon. Now, thanks to the power of the internets, we can spread that security all over the world.

The whole "let's move DST around and save energy" thing was a waste of time anyway.

I've never understood why we can't just set the clocks and leave them, and then adjust the time of day that we do things.

Because then we'd all turn purple and explode! Duh!

The middle name was her parents' idea, and yeah, it's totally real. Jennifer was a couple of years behind me at the ol' college paper and she certainly had a memorable middle name -- especially in an organization where your initials were used to identify you in everything.
