A guide to setting your clocks back this Sunday...
SmartPhone: Leave it alone; it does it's magic.
Sundial: Move one house to the left. Oven: You'll need a Master's Degree in Electronic Engineer...or a hammer. Car Radio: Leave it alone, wait 4 months. |

Our oven makes you input the current year. Century included. I shit you not. It also loses the current time if we lose power for 16 milliseconds.

Don't forget about setting the time on the programmable thermostat too.

Sprinkler and lighting timers...
I even have several regular non digital clocks to adjust. Exactly how hard would a battery to keep time in appliances be... Our microwave also loses time if power even thinks about flickering. Then requires a ten step non intuitive process to set it. Now if the stupid OTA tv channels would adjust the programming guides and descriptions to the correct time, seems to take seeks sometimes. |

I am the master of digital clocks in my house. One of my retirement duties since I'm not good for much else anymore.

Spence, here is a pro tip. Set your clock back at 7 or 8 p.m. on Saturday night. That way you get an extra hour of drinking in before midnight!!
