DST back - my favorite holiday

glatt 10-31-2008 08:57 AM

There is a statistical decrease in heart attacks the week after DST back. Of course, there is an increase in the spring to make up for it.

So it's just delaying the inevitable by a few months.

I have an appointment with my new GP on election day. That's going to be fun. :D

is it the extra hour sleep?

Plus, if you forget to switch in the Fall, the worst that happens is you're an hour early for something. If you forget in the Spring, you're an hour late. Maybe you're fired, maybe you miss your grandma's funeral, who knows?

I'm going to start setting my clock back an hour every Sunday - just to be safe.

Just what the fuck we need... an extra hour of 2008. :(

Don't Look in the Basement

When executing a double lift, be sure to give the cards a little bend so that it looks more like a single card.

Never underestimate the importance of seeing her daddy dress up in a costume in making your daughter's Halloween complete.

Yes. That one extra hour reduces stress enough that you can see a dip in heart attacks. But in the Spring, losing an hour increases stress enough that there is a slight bump in heart attacks the following week.
