How many people has their clock on puter connected to a timeserver?
Mine is connected to one in Germany so it switches time automaticly.
It's easy and i'm always sure to have the correct time at my beloved computer.

Bill, Bill... Bill,

What are we gonna do with you?    

Marcel... my 'puter changes automatically too... it's every other thing...    still gotta go around and change the TV, the VCR, the stove, the microwave... dunno how many clocks and watches around the house...  

It's a nuisance!

Anybody know how to set the clocks in a cat and dog? Both cats wanted out an hour earlier and had to walk the dog an hour earlier; needless to say I had to get up an hour earlier, and on a Sunday to boot?  J'ai eu mon voyage!

Well at least it's sunny and the 20+ cms (5 in.) of snow that fell yesterday has begun to melt, maybe Spring will really arrive soon!

From the True North strong and free!

Je suis désolé, je ne sais pas Johan... mais mon chien a voulu un repas supplémentaire déjà aujourd'hui... et la maison entière est confondue.

(Sorry, I don't know but my dog has already wanted an extra meal today... and the whole house is confused)

I've heard a robin singing this year already, so maybe it bodes well for a timely spring... they were late last year.

Et ouais, Le Vrai du nord Fort et Libre!

[QB]Got a dog door. Both dog and cat let themselves out.    

Well I did consider a dog/cat door once, but the wife reminded me of the -25C weather we get here and that maybe snow might get in; and as I pay the heating bill I chucked that idea!

Bien pensé mais pas de tout practique! Et c'est ton tour DB!

Johan...

Oui, mais tu dois te souviens d'où Bill habite, il ne va jamais au dessous soixante degrés Fahrenheit, alors c'est éminemment practique pour lui d'avoir une porte pour les chats et chiens...  

(Yes, but you have to remember that where Bill lives, it never goes below 60 degrees F. so it's eminently practical for him to have a door for the cats and dogs...    )

Bill... Turned them inside out??    ooohhh NO... how groady!! P.S. if that's spelled wrong I ain't no "valley girl", I only pretend!

Don't feel so badly, Bill. It's confession time    

A week ago (3/29) having persuaded myself that the 30th was the onset of DST (absent, it should be reported, any reference to hard data other than my head!) I went around that evening and carefully changed each of the 28 clocks throughout the house and garage.

Of course, up came Sunday morning, the 30th, and I discovered the error of my ways, Now, I think being a week early is a lot more stupid than being a day late .  . certainly it was a lot more work

OK... about living up here: in my finest Victoria voice... "It not my fault...     "

So I'll take that as a compliment Bill...

Being an "EX" Hoosier, I can state that Indiana chose NOT to change the clocks for fear of having the extra hour of sunlight burn their grass!
