I officially hate it. Hate it. Did I mention that I hate it? Throws my whole damn day off -- and for what reason? Hell if I know. All I do know are some states and some counties w/in states don't participate. So I think we should start a Gulf Coast movement to depart from the time change.We need time after work to see some day light, sit on the porch sipping a beverage of choice.
We recently elected us a new mayor who will have more power than our old time (and good ol' boy) symbolic mayor. I think he might be up for the challenge. Wouldn't the tourism industry benefit? I know the locals would benefit (esp. this slightly daft one). Consider all the people with Seasonal Affective Disorder - it would have to help them. I know this happened two weeks ago, but I was giving my self time to adjust - I haven't. I've just gotten more irritated every evening going home in the damn dark.
I say we take back our precious winter daylight and we do it now. Bring on the torches and the pitchforks.
End of Rant (for now...).
I try to give new Food Network shows a try -- if they don't seem too stupid (I'm talking to you, Guy Fieri)* - or at least maybe they are new to me. You never know, right? So when I saw Mexican Made Easy, I thought okay, let's try it - We love Mexican food, real Mexican - not that greasy stuff you get a mediocre Mexican places - blech.
Where does Food Network get these people? I know there are contests (next food network loser star - again, Guy, I think I'm talking to you), but come on. Marcela Valladolid is as bad as Giada but with worse ideas - stop with the accent - please you just seem, well, silly. I un-TiVo'd the show after an episode for the card-company created holiday** was entitled "Cuddle Cuisine." I think I got a little bit sick. Barf. So much for that... another in a myriad of Food Network shows that will be ignored. Can't they come up w/anything good? Sigh - I guess it's just AB again.
* I'm thinking we must worship at the altar of Food Network Humor.
** Valentine's Day for those of you who think it's real and that he really loves you because he manages to take you out to dinner one time a year... weak.
