Why daylight saving time exists—at least for now
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/daylight-saving-time

And why it’s weirder than you think
https://rjhamster.com/2023/11/04/daylight-saving-time-is-even-weirder-than-you-think/
*since this is a Nat Geo Digital Premium article I did a bit of searching and found the above  re-route link to
the Nat'l Geo digital. I hope it works.

Something to remember when visiting the Nat'l Geographic  digital site --- even for me, who has a subscription, it can take from 5 secs to 30secs for their server to recognized  my  IP and or DNS from my device.  They have millions of subscribers and each one is validated with their database.  When I first signed up it took 3 days for my initial request to get  recognized. Then poof!  :)


Any way...Try a less specific search:

Why is there daylight savings time?

CLynn  all the 'right' Tennessee critters this am;  It ' Daylight Savings Time "  and 'they' was/were  suppose to have been voted on last year... ::)   Enjoyed reading about Sydney Sea Eagle Cam , sounds really good there  ;) Not so bad kittens will be with Erin I'm sure he'll isolate them. Bella will be a good mommie  until you return.

{{{Tig}}}

Tsk  cute Pilgrims this  AM; glad you got the meals for Tim-sincerely hope/pray this all works out for Tim/You.  ;)

Hi Puff  :)

KB very pretty Himalayan cat; that's a lotta videos and snaps  :o

Bazi compression knee braces many times I wear two-one for each knee

Lisa should any of us be eating frosted chocolate donuts and coffee for breakfast? Sometimes, who cares.  ;D  Last night,... aftre enlarging his photo and checking out the red arrow.   I searched and turned over rocks and pulled moss to find BL but no luck...no BL   :(

Lori what a sweet Tuxedo kitten today...there's Cole and Marmalade, too!   Tis' true our kitties and pooches keep the same chow time regardless.
Gotta have an apple fritter.

Lani AM kitty with knitted cap looks skeptical ;  barfing wretch is un mistakeable sound , I've been awaken by such from Maggie but never on my pillow (case). So you use Lysol spray , too.  ;) :)   Sad news from the Royals  :'(   may be the best Albie win  Bird of the Year and Bird of the Century

KB/Tig and all watching games today good luck    ;)

Baz, the red arrow is in the middle of the picture as it is before enlarging.  It is less than an inch above the water!  The tree line is sloping down  to the left where this occurs. 

Thanks for expressing my feelings about OGK!  As with many of our pairs, this is so sad.  Unfortunately,  much of the wildlife in the world is endangered and or stressed!   It truly saddens me!

Good job on your weight loss Tig!  That is tough to do!

Pleasant day with a high of 79  but wit the humidity in the  20s it feels much cooler! 

Have a good night!  Seds

Kb - Gorgeous kitty!  Wow, lots of pictures & vids to look at - and as you mentioned, this will probably be a good project to go thru during the winter and delete the ones you no longer want!   Chris sure is handy with your updates, etc.! ;D

LisaG - I understand about the shoppers with their carts without any regard for folks trying to get around them - happened to me yesterday in Costco.  I should know better than to go on a Saturday!   I am not happy with our Costco, as they are now setting pallets in the aisles, whereas they used to keep the aisles clear and folks could get through pretty easily - not anymore. ::)   I will try to stick to weekday mornings. ;)

Lori - Love your Sunday and Autumn pics & graphics  :)

Lani - Have a wonderful visit and dinner with Shannon coming over!  So nice that she keeps up with supplying Mike with those delicious Cozy burgers!! ;D   Safe travels for Mike to Louisiana.    Awe, so sad about OGK missing. :(

Tsk - Good question re our antique clocks  :)  Hubby changed 6 antique clocks in our house that are currently running every day (including 2 Grandfather clocks).  We have clocks that he doesn't keep running full time; two lovely Cuckoo clocks.   We acquired most from his parents after they passed away in 2020.

Tig - Yaay SKOL!

Bazi - Now I know what FF means - glad you asked the question - thank you Tig & LisaG!

Beakers have a good night - SEDs  :)

Happy Day, Beakers!  :)


Karen, thanks.  :)  I finally found my problem! I was going directly to BL's original post with his pic attached there - it has no red arrow! LOL!  I only, just now! even noticed that BL's post from yesterday had attached that same picture to the bottom of yesterday's post, and that is the one with the red arrow!! and... BL?? LOL!!


My knee was good today! No meds, no limp, and almost no pain. YAY!  I walked 28 minutes. It was another beautiful day.  Blue sky, 77 degrees, and a nice breeze.  :)


Phyl, glad you like using yours, but my orthopaedic surgeon advised me not to use a knee brace for day-to-day use with my knee's situation. Everyone is different, and who knows, maybe that will change over time. But, so far, I don't need one. Fingers crossed!

E4E, that's a lot of time to change! LOL.  ;)  My father was a "timepiece" person - so many clocks and watches. I admit to having an affinity to watches, but I never got the clock bug. And now I don't even wear any of my watches, except on rare occasion.

Clynn... Oh boy, free association time!  8) ...  Misty, Morrie, Mary Lou, Beatrice, Cletus, Sheila, Rocky, Blue, Bebe, Dolly, Patty, Lou Lou, Lily, Layla, Lewis, Thelma, Louise (of course, LOL), Mac, Macie, Lacy, Lucy, Lucille, Daisy, Rascal, Rawley, Willis, Wally, Wylie, Wiley, Riley, Miley, Cisco, Frisco, Joey, Bert, Burt, Bunny, Henry, George, Georgia, Frannie, Dottie, Lexus, Lexie, and my neighbor's miniature chihuahua's name, Truffle!  He's a hoot!   ;) :D :D :D


Have a good night, All. Peace. SED.

Congrats Tig and Kb!  8)

It was another gorgeous Fall day!

{{{Baz}}} That's wonderful news about your knee!   :-* I hope YRK finds a new mate too. But, most think she will leave early and wait another year to find a new mate.... great names for Clynn!  ;D

SED Eagles, How special to have grandfather clocks and Cuckoo clocks. I love their sounds... I have a grandfather clock I love the sound of the chimes... shopping at Costco on a Saturday would worse than shopping at Walmart.  :-\ ... You've got to get there early. I agree about the pallets  :-\

SED Phy, Tsk,

Good night!
