Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for March 09, 2019

It will bug him for the rest of his life.

Hey, he’ll die an hour later.

And your spending this valuable time watching television? Quick, go out and find a mate before its too late!

I have had my birthday short-changed an hour twice. It was working for a total full day when they changed it. They should just keep Mean Solar Time year ’round and if anyone wants DST features, they can post “summer hours”. I can remember when stores, in particular, did this.

Eek, Wisconsinites living along the Mississippi, when they hatch remember to drive like a thunder-snow blizzard on black-ice.

Saving, not Savings.

Ah yes. Time for the semi-annual act of outdated moronic stupidity.

Dude, it’s not like your life’s any shorter for it.

My life is noticeably shorter for the time it takes to reset a wrist watch, two clock radios, two wall clocks, the clocks on the regular and microwave ovens, the house phone/answering machine, and the dashboard clock in the car…plus whichever others I’m not thinking of right now but will doubtless be reminded of at an inconvenient moment.

Please pick one time and stick to it. I’m not fussy which.
