Daylight Saving Time

Hawaii is immune from such shenanigans as Daylight Saving Time. When most of the United States (there are a couple of exceptions) had to move their clocks an hour forward before bedtime on Saturday night, we were spared once again from having to mess with our clocks.

Oh yeah? Unfortunately, somebody forgot to put in the order.

Our electricity went off around 4 a.m. yesterday morning and stayed off for several hours. So the wife and I went out to breakfast since we couldn’t cook. Lemme tell you, Zippy’s McCully was packed to the gills with people having Sunday breakfast, probably because they also couldn’t cook at home.

When we returned home, our power was back on; apparently it returned not long after we went out.

Which is all well and good, except that there were a few digital clocks that had to be reset. About the only ones that maintained the right time were the cable boxes. All the rest either were blinking or displayed the wrong time.

Guess who had to reset our clocks?

So haha to me, you mainland folks can stop laughing now.
