Because the religious right is just such a fan of the Catholic Church?
Point to you.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Am tired, not so much because of DST, but because I woke up at random points during the night. Went right back to sleep each time, but still....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Eep! I just made an unofficial pitch on a book to a publisher who contacted me.
It would be very good to get another advance and start another book, as the alternative is more temping (which is less tempting).
Also, I suspect this book would (a) pay more and (b) be easier to write than my Tom Waits book.

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

Folks, I lost an hour today. I left work all, "it's 4pm! I am leaving early!" And arrived at day care at 5:10.
Apparently my computer has been plotting against me. I manually corrected the time this morning and it must have re-wronginated itself during the afternoon some time. I knew it was an unconscionably long afternoon.
In sum: HATE daylight saving time.

That sucks. Last year at this time, one of our servers insisted on doing this. I forget what we did to fix it.

My computer clock rewrongifies its time several times an hour, so I have to check here and see what the last post has time stamped to figure out what the hell time it really is!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
My work computer does this every year - sometimes it's the whole computer, sometimes it's just Outlook. And it always resolves itself when the UK switches over, but the weeks in-between are always screwed up somehow.

Oh, don't get me started on the wrongness of Lotus Notes' time these next few weeks. And everyone calls me to say, "Hey, I was looking in the Notes calendar, and some of the times are off by an hour, and can you fix that? Or explain it?"
I reply, "No, and underpants gnomes."
Also today, I couldn't log into SAP R/3 because of a "clock skew error."
