Posts from SaddleTramp in thread „Daylight Saving Time“

    Like I'm trying to say people!!! You are not saving time...It is imposible to do.There are 24 hours,1440 minutes in every day.You can't save 35 minutes from today and use it tomorrow. If people want more daylight hours to play then get your hide up and to work earlier.Quit messing with the clocks. You are only fooling yourself with the illusion of actualy saving time.As for The Ringo Kids idea about bringing congresses idiots up here I have to say they would fit right in with our bunglers and crooks.I've said for years that we need a special place to put these people and I was thinking of some of our northern territory. It is definately cold and frozen for a good portion of the year and DST would't work at all when you have 6 months of daylight 6 months of dark...SaddleTramp...

    Well folks, us guys here in Saskatchewan have been on DST for years and it sucks when you live in the country.My daughter gets on the schoolbus at 7:15 am (6:15am ST) and it is dark for another 2 and a half hours. Alberta changes same as everyone else and being close to the border we do alot of business and doctor-dentist stuff etc. in Alberta.There are always screw ups in the time difference.Low and behold our NDP government in it's finite wisdom wants us to advance another hour. We feed our cattle when its light and quit work when its dark(sometimes) and I wish they would just bring back standard time and leave things be.If the Townies want more time to golf just open their stores an hour earlier,quit an hour earlier and leave the clock alone.Time is what Time is...no matter what the clock reads...SaddleTramp...Ps... my heifers don't care what time it is ,they calve when they want to...
