Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

Thrive to spite them

Why did Congress length Daylight savings time? Was it some weird gesture about saving energy?

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

Yes.

They had to have something about saving energy in that massive energy bill that gave tens of billions of dollars of tax breaks to oil companies, who are currently suffering under record profits....

not sure. Is the US the only country that does this?

Other countries have daylight saving time. Canada said that they'd follow the US changes, IIRC.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I don't understand how extending daylight savings time saves energy. I mean, no matter when the hours are, it is still light the same number of hours, right? And when it is not light, we turn the lights on, whether it is in the evening or the morning, right? So how am I saving energy by not turning my lights on at 6 am, but having to turn them on at 6pm instead of 7 pm? Or am I just a dunce?

Ah. I guess it would be very confusing if others didn't do it, too.
