pam Posted October 31, 2009 Report Posted October 31, 2009 Don't forget (for those that this applies to) to set your clocks back an hour before going to bed Saturday night. Or you might find yourself at church pretty early Sunday morning.
Bini Posted October 31, 2009 Report Posted October 31, 2009 Hubby reminded me of this the other day. Thanks Pam for another one :]
Moksha Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 For any of you planning to go to BYU, set your watch for 1962.
Wingnut Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 And don't forget to check the batteries in your smoke detectors, too.
BenRaines Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 How many years are you going to set your clock back Pam? :) Ben Raines
Guest Godless Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 And don't forget to check the batteries in your smoke detectors, too.Those things have batteries?!?!?!?
pam Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Posted November 1, 2009 Guess it's time to check yours huh?
pam Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Posted November 1, 2009 Also carbon monoxide sensors. Especially now with winter coming.
Dravin Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 /me starts humming If I Could Turn Back Time.
pam Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Posted November 1, 2009 Sing it Cher...errrr..I mean Dravin.
Dravin Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 /me cranks up the karaoke machine and starts singing, badly, at the top of his lungs.
pam Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Posted November 1, 2009 I'm so glad this doesn't have audio.
Iggy Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 Arizona doesn't do the Clocks Forward, Clocks Back, Clocks Forward, Clocks Back. It is the ONLY good thing about AZ that I can find. Dry heat indeed HOT is hot, whether it is dry or moist.
Moksha Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 Arizona doesn't do the Clocks Forward, Clocks Back, ... They don't take to new ideas well.
Iggy Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 They don't take to new ideas well. It's the dry heat!

Iggy Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 Hey what happened to a "United" States? Goes for the speed limit too. Each state has it's own set of speeds-(?). Here in good 'ol AZ - it is posted 75 on the freeway- but when someone goes 75, the other cars ride your bumper, honk and signal (single finger salute) and the cop glare at you! The left lane is NOT the fast lane. ALL lanes are the fast lane.
Mahone Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 (edited) They don't take to new ideas well.Imagine if we had a repeat of September 1752 where they took away 11 days to speed the calendar up to the correct position of the earth? All those poor people who had a birthday during those 11 days had to wait until the year after... I dread to think of the problems if they had computers back in those days Actually, having that said, the Gregorian Calendar is NOT 100% accurate. Within a few hundred years (I don't remember exactly how many) we'll be one day behind again and somehow they are going to have to to remove a day from the calendar. I suggest we let our descendants deal with that mess when the time comes to it Edited November 1, 2009 by Mahone
Kenny Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 And don't forget to check the batteries in your smoke detectors, too.There are smoke alarms now that last ten years and you never have to change the battery. Bought one the other day from B&Q our version of your Home Depot.
miztrniceguy Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 Pam, I forgot to set ours back....too tired after taking the kids up and down our street. I got up this morning thinking..."I wish I had been able to sleep past 6" and then was at the computer awhile and saw this thread again...Lo and behold it's 5:30 now and I've been up half an hour already. dagnabit!!!
Kenny Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 Normally pretty good at remembering to put the clocks back, but one year I turned up for PEC, waited 20 minutes and thought it must have been cancelled. A newly baptised member was there waiting with me as he liked sitting in the empty chaple for an hour before people arrived. Went home took him with me and had breakfast while my family got over the giggles after telling them sternly the night before to alter their own clocks.
Guest xforeverxmetalx Posted November 2, 2009 Report Posted November 2, 2009 that's the good thing about cell phone and computer clocks, they change automatically... still haven't changed the regular clock though doesn't matter for now since my phone's my alarm
ADoyle90815 Posted November 2, 2009 Report Posted November 2, 2009 My cell phone, computer, and cable box changed automatically, so I just had to change every other clock, using my cell phone to get the correct time. I never figured out how to set the clock in my car, so that's now an hour fast. It doesn't matter anyway since I use a watch to keep track of time as my cell phone stays in my purse while I drive. I was doing that ever since I had my first cellphone, before there were laws against talking/texting while driving.
