Daylight Savings Time!

HEY HEY HEY,

So, that time of the year is on the horizon where the country moves with the times and " Springs Forward" one hour. DAY LIGHT SAVINGS is the practice of advancing clocks so that evenings have more daylight and mornings have less. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of spring.. Hence " Spring Forward" and are adjusted backward in autumn "FALL BACK".

So starting Sunday morning (3/10/13) America other countries across the world will shift there lives to get more wonderful daylight in each wakening day! There will always be those of you who forget you will be one hour late! due to the fact that the masses live their lives by a smart phone they will have no idea what happened but most likely hit the Snooze button more than usual... But then again there are the cream of the crop that would be an hour late weather or not this crazy time phenomena happened. If your from one of the rebellious states such as Arizona and Hawaii who decided they would not participate you will be caught up with your friends and family... and most likely were confused that the rest of the country changes their clocks in the first place.


Here is a little History: "The modern idea of daylight saving was first proposed in 1895 by George Vernon Hudson [9] and it was first implemented during the First World War. Many countries have used it at various times since then. Although most of the United States used DST throughout the 1950s and 1960s, DST use expanded following the 1970s energy crisis and has generally remained in use in North America and Europe since that time." wikipedia
