Actually, I think our pets are a lot smarter than we can even imagine.

My cat of 19 years, Mr.Kitty, always wanted his meaty breakfast
and was used to me getting up early to feed him first thing. If I
layed there even 10 minutes past 4am, he would jump on the bed,
walk right across me, then jump off and wait in the kitchen. lol!

This was definitely "his" house and I was the servant.

With my girl she is a tiny cat and not overly interested in food, she
just wants me to get up and be around, sleeping in bed is boring for
her

Why is it you spend literally ALL your time here?

No home life at all?

How sad that you, as a pet owner don't know this . . . cats and dogs
are issued watches at birth. You can't see them because they are
designed to meld with fur. I've heard that if you can find the watch
you can set it for daylight saving time. I've never been able to do
so.
P.S. any tags your pet is wearing will be used to wake you to do
their bidding. This is accomplished by the pet scratching behind the
ear to make the tags jingle. It's in their manual of how to handle
pet owners.

That's a savvy observation, and you are correct.

In fact that clash of air masses is precisely why our storms light off
so violently, and generally end so abruptly.

A 30-40F cold downdraft temp. drop can exhaust atmospheric energy rather
quickly.

That's the part that would do me in, no long view.

Otoh I've read almost all of Jim Harrison's books and his reminiscences
on life in the woods are pretty engaging stuff.

It's nice to live in a place where you can be a few hours drive from
half a dozen climatic and eco zones and still have a major city to rely on.

'Sides, most of your automotive tester guys end up running around our
state year round.

Shoot, you'd think we had a harsh climate here or something...

How did I not know?? There is that bump right on their 'wrist'
for pete's sake.

I just wait it out. I trick her a few minutes a day.

You mean ... it's not by accident? They do that on purpose??

Embarrassing, I had no idea. So devious.

Hopefully at some point we can all stop flip-flopping the clocks every 6
months. It's annoying.

The EU seems to be thinking about stopping daylight saving time. Some
say "the disadvantages outweigh the advantages".

All we're doing is changing back and forth one hour. I think a
good compromise would be to change it 1/2 hour, right in-between.
Just one time then never change it again.

Massachusetts is considering going to the Atlantic time zone since they
are so far east. I'd like that too. Living 8 miles from the border it
would be a bit of a PITA at first since we have doctors there, do some
shopping there, have friends there. Let's meet at noon. OK, your noon
or mine?

Eastern BC towns use MST rather than the rest of the Province. Also,
those on the border of Saskatchewan and Alberta use MST and follow the
DST changes although the rest of that Province does not follow DST.
