Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I like overcast. And it's the perfect temperature. Don't wanna be inside.

Fair enough. It is warm/humid outside. Since I ain't seeing the outside, like, ever, I just want the sun through my window.

I can't even.

I have a window. There is lovely rain splattering against it vigorously now, and I need to run an errand at lunch. Gah.

I have a window. It doesn't open, though.

I desperately need lunch, but I don't know what I want. What's everyone else having?

Poor Homer.

So this morning I get a letter asking if I want to write a chapter for a new book called "D'oh: The Psychology of The Simpsons." It's a good idea for a book, but I'll have to decline because I've only seen a handful of episodes. I'm tempted to write back and say "If you ever decide to do one on Buffy . . . "

I have a window. It opens. Overlooking a pretty ravine. And when it rains, I have a view of a waterfall.

Job sucks, though.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A House committee voted on Wednesday to expand U.S. daylight-saving time by two months to help reduce energy consumption, but rejected a plan to shave total U.S. oil demand by 1 million barrels a day.

Both proposals were offered as amendments to be tacked on to a broad energy bill that was debated by the House Energy and Commerce Committee.

The panel agreed in a voice vote to move the start of daylight-saving time in the United States -- which occurs when clocks are turned forward by one hour -- one month earlier to the first Sunday in March. The end of daylight time would be moved back one month to the last Sunday in November.

What do you think? The argument is that offices would save money because they'd be open when it was light. Does it make much difference in March and November?
