Around the coffee pot This forum is for any topic that you would normally talk about at the office "around the coffee pot". Jokes, tall tales, and true stories are welcome as long as they are clean and in good taste. I only ask that you steer away from topics on religion or politics. Go ahead and pull up a chair and pour yourself a cup of coffee and enjoy the conversation.

I used to like the fall time change, since it meant an extra hour of sleep. Now with young kids, it means an extra hour awake .

I used to like the fall time change, since it meant an extra hour of bar time mostly during Halloween parties at said bars. Now I only go to a bar when there is a birthday party for a friend.

I am up at 5 AM so, whether I run the lights in the morning or at night for that extra hour, my bill is still the same.

Personally, I would like to have that extra hour of daylight in the evening all year round.

Our cat caught on quickly to spring forward; he could get fed an hour earlier. Now he demands being fed at 5 AM vice 6. He is relentless and I am without sleep. Cut it out **** it!

I live in one of the saner parts of the world. All year long, when the sun is due south, it is 1 p.m. They call it central standard time, but we all know that we have year round mountain daylight time.
The older I get, the better I like it. And the cat doesn't get fed at different times either

The one thing I HATE about DST is now on the AM drive to work the sun is right in the driver's side front windshield. Too low in the sky for the visor to block it. Even good sunglasses don't help very much. Oh well. Soon it will move a bit.
