Did you know that when they first instituted time zones (so trains could keep schedules as they crossed longitudes) some people objected because as far as they were concerned their actual local solar noon defined “God’s time?” But to no avail; where I live, it won’t actually be noon today until about 13:08. And they’re seriously talking about making daylight saving time a year-round thing and my question is why not leave it alone and just start work and school earlier? Because at my age, springing forward is unappealing. I may not have an hour and eight minutes to spare.

- I know you have your choice of blogs; thank you for choosing 100 word rant. I believe that any idea that needs more than 100 words isn't worth expressing in the first place. So I've dedicated myself to these rants: One hundred words, no more, no less, each and every week. I want to reach out, share some of my insights and, yes, a little of the wisdom I've picked up in my journey through this funny thing we call life. Plus, I don't get paid for this, and even a hundred free words is more than I can afford.
