Yes, friends, dreaded Daylight Saving Time has returned, which is why everyone is looking bleary-eyed, and even the cop on the beat is snoring.
The province of Saskatchewan is one of the few places free from this nuisance; that's because time in rural areas is dictated by cows, who do not hold with changes in their schedule. "Cows," observed Mr. Berkeley Bigler of Horizon, "have a mind of their own."
The unanswered question is, what is done with all the time saved? Do Ottawa bureaucrats use it for their vacations? Or do they invest it, and give it back to us later as a statutory holiday?
We continue to believe there should be a Moonlight Saving Time, as set out in these lyrics:
"There oughta be a Moonlight Saving Time
So I could love that girl of mine
Until the birdies wake and chime 'Good Morning!'"
A good day to all, and especially those whose favorite radio program is the Dominion Observatory Official Time Signal.
