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.

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

That's right, this cage gots a sweeeeet view.

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?

I used to have a window...

But I don't mind not having one, it was always freezing in the morning inad boiling in the afternoon in my office, and it drove me crazy.

Now tagless for your comfort.

It won't matter in Indiana, anyway. They still refuse to recognize DST.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Indiana wants me. Lord I can't go back there.

I dunno about offices, but it would sure make a difference to me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I have a window. It opens, and overlooks a parking lot. I sit with my back to it most of the time.

Extending DST is just gonna make there be more time when I have to get up in the dark. I'm against that.
