In a strain on universal physics, and with a promise to further disorient the populace as we battle/endure a global pandemic, as we attempt to internalize the new presidential candidate slate, and as we either laugh or cry at the latest White House shenanigans, a valuable hour of sleep is being wrested from us.
Daylight Saving Time starts Sunday morning, March 8, at 2 a.m.
So much for constants in the universe.
A perfect analysis, Lin!
This is so funny. I sent it to all my family. I told them where it came from.
Yes, as obesity expands our waistlines and shifts the rotating mass of the planet relativistic time slows and and we compensate with leap years leap hours and leaps of faith. Easter will be on a blue moon following lilac florescence and presidential elections will be held after the same universal background checks used to purchase an AK-47 or get a school loan and a cost/benefit analysis of food and medicine required by each migrant kept South by a mile of additional wall built. Luckily this reminder is made mute by the fact that my phone is smarter than I am now and has acquired a new app that will vote for me, remind me to get up early on Sunday track my weight and lie to me about it.. and it is virus free, dipped in Absolut vodka regularly, and takes my temperature. I see your disorientation and raise you one parsec.
Thanks Lynn!!!
