We have now entered into the time of year known as Daylight Saving Time.
Contrary to popular opinion, no daylight is saved. No matter how we fiddle with our clocks we will have the same amount of sun per day.
Some folks thinks it saves energy. This NIST web page explains the history. I see a lot of hand waving but little in the way of proof for all the supposed savings. All I know is I don't like an hour of my sleep rudely wrested from me. Next thing you know, they'll want us to adopt the metric system.

There are a few things in life that bring my pleasure. Above note, there are six egg yolks. Yet, I only cracked five eggs. How can this be? Double yolks. I always feel lucky when I run into an egg with two yolks. Other things that make me feel good.
- Buying a basket of items at the grocery store and having it come out even.
- Having enough money to buy 100 stamps at a time.
- Finding money in a pocket, when I did not expect the money to be there.
