I suppose we should all be grateful for this one act of thoughtfulness that Bush has given to America, although his motive for doing so may center on the hopes that consumers will take advantage of one more hour of the day to shop during that extra hour of daylight shopping.
Daylight Savings Time begins this weekend.
The one bright spot, other than the sun setting at a later time, is that this is an hour lost that benefits each and every one of us.
Just think, 60 minutes of winter will cease to be! Spring will be so much sooner than any year before.
Sure, come this fall time will catch up and deliver us back toward the next winter but that won't occur until November 2nd. Then again, he-whom-no-one-really-can-stand-to-be-our-President is shortchanging voters by no extending just another week to give us a little more daylight to cast votes in the General Election.
Of course, his name isn't on the ballot (thank goodness!) so what the heck does he care?
The last bit of gratitude for speeding up time this fall is that it brings us one more hour of the colors of autumn.
So, enjoy the benefits of an earlier DST. The first day of Spring, March 20, is closer than you think.
