6:37 my butt. Its 5:37 and I know it.

I hate being awake at 6 in the morning.

5 in the mornong is bulls&$#!!

For 35 years now, I have been getting up at 0500.  The unfortunate thing about that is that I now automatically still wake up at 0500 on weekends and vacations.

You are one lousy risk manager.

All it means to me is I have to get the wife up earlier so she can go to work... Forced Retirement isn't ALL bad!
I might not last very long or be very effective but I'll be a real pain in the ass for a minute!

I hate that... I automatically wake up at 3 and 6, unless i'm really wiped out. The only saveing grace is I can go back to sleep with reletive ease.

You've already put in a good half days' work by then in the military.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Completely understand. When I'm not scheduled to work, I often bolt upright when the sun shines on me in belief that I am late for work...

I love working the graveyard shift =D I don't give a crap what the clock says. If I'm home and it's daylight I can get outside and work. When I get tired I go to bed. My bedroom is like a vampires lair. extraheavy dark curtains and even my west facing windows don't let in enough light to bother me.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

The thing that really peeves me about DST is the MMGW crowd constantly focusing on industrial activity as a root cause, yet they ignore simple things like considering the impact of a whole extra hour of daylight for half the year.  :mad:

I promise not to duck.
