A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

Just in case there are questions about it, this is a reminder to check the Clock settings of your computer and also the Time Zone settings on all of the Forums you attend.

Some Forums do not allow for Timezone and Daylight Savings Time to be adjusted automatically.

Where I am in Aust, we are divided over the DST issue that some states doesnt adopt Daylight savings. In my case, the state where i from (Queensland) is one of the few that doesnt adopt DST.

That's pretty interesting. Luckily everything I have reset itself, well not the house clocks and watch but my computer did as well as my phone. I heard that around here they were thinking of making it Daylight Savings Time all the time and keep the daylight always out longer. Now it's gonna get dark here around 6 which has it's pluses and minuses.

I remembered to switch all the clocks back one hour, but.... only after I saw that Good Morning America's clock was an hour behind mine. Good old GMA!

I like that I can actually walk home in the SUN for a little while....

I work overnight. The past month, it's been dark until 7:30, half an hour after I get off from Timmies... tongue.gif

I love this DST - I've got an essay due in for tomorrow and I've got an extra hour to do it. And I managed to grab an extra hour of sleep, so if I stay up and extra hour doing said essay then I won't be as knackered tomorrow. Win for all!

It's nice because now I can go to the bus stop in the morning and it's not 30 degrees out. The extra sleep was nice.

Yeah i actually forgot all about it until i checked my cell phone and i noticed it was a hour earlier that the rest of the clocks in my house. This extra hour of sleep better be a big help because i have 4 tests to do tomorrow.
