First Day of Spring

Ahhh, Spring is coming. Just stop and smell the excitement.

Okay, stop smelling; your nostrils look weird when you do that.

In honour of Impending Springage, and the Eventuality that is Daylight Saving Time, I'd like to present:

6 Things You Didn't Know About Daylight Saving Time

1. Sakstachewan not only doesn't observe Daylight Saving Time, but as a matter of pride, insists that it is perpetually 5 p.m.

2. Unfortunately, with the American currency exchange, you actually lose around 73 minutes of sleep.

3. Although studies show that 68 percent of men remember to set their clocks forward, setting the toilet seat forward comes in at around 17 percent.

4. For one day only, one-hour photo developing actually happens instantaneously.

5. Contrary to popular belief, the concept of Daylight Saving Time was actually invented in 1913 by some guy really eager to leave his girlfriend's house early.

6. Some of us no longer have to set their clocks forward one hour. The aliens do that for them once they've been adequately probed.
