Turn your clocks back Sunday morning at 2 AM. Yes, last call comes twice if you can find somebody who won’t throw your drunk ass out in the street. Thank the The Energy Policy Act of 2005. Any plans for that extra hour?
That hour will definitely be spent sleeping…
I plan to write my congressman and ask her to introduce legislation that extends daylight savings time to also cover the period from November through March.
Ha! Love it!
Not forgetting Sunday morning’s time change is hard enough.
But Apple iPhone users in the United States must also remember to delete and then reset their phone’s alarm clock — otherwise they may be an hour late for work on Monday morning.
A glitch in the iPhone’s operating system will cause recurring weekday alarms not to ring on time on Monday morning because of the end of Daylight Saving Time, which occurs at 2 a.m. on Sunday in the United States.
The phone’s alarm app doesn’t recognize the time change and will ring an hour late if users don’t go into the program and manually reset the alarms.
1. Open the Clock application.
2. Click on the Alarm icon at the bottom of the screen.
3. Click the “plus sign” icon in the top right corner.
4. Create an alarm and make sure you have the “repeat” option set to “never.” (The glitch only occurs with repeat alarms, such as those workers set to wake them up at the same time each weekday).
5. Select the appropriate time and sound, and click “save.”
6. After November 7, you can again create repeat alarms without trouble, but you should delete any recurring alarms that you set before that date.
aaa! y2K!!
