Default A little reminder

Daylight Savings Time ends at 2am. (for those states that participate).

Set the clocks back an hour tonight.


Longest weekend of the year, and it's Halloween. Gotta love it.

This should make the forum clock accurate again too.

Daylight savings won't fix the clock, it's like and hour and 15 minutes off here and I live in the home of the Vette Barn! Maybe it's bar time?

Speaking of bar time, if you go to the bar tomorrow night and at 2am when it switches to 1am does the bar stay open an extra hour? Last call.... ahhh psyche! Keep drinkin!

That's odd.

Forum time on my screen shows 3:42 right now, and my comp. clock shows 4:42.

Are you going by the activities page? Because those results have been lagging about 15 -20 mins from activity event, to event reported.

Yep, our bars get to stay open an extra hour!

Yes. But some bars choose to take advantage, others do not. (in my experience).

We also kinda get f'k'd out of a 1/2 hr in the spring because of it. (2:30 weekend bar time here, so when DST reappears, it's everyone out at 2 on a Sat night - that never goes over too well).

So I gain a hour and lose a hour

Sounds about right.
