I thought Louisiana was doing away with daylight savings time?

It is nice right now. Daylight about 6am and dark around 7pm and will continue to get later as we move to the summer months.

Leave it alone dang it. "#getoffmylawn!"

No, we’re going to permanent Day light savings time.

Yes, I have time to cut my grass when I get home from work instead of Saturday mornings.

Its the opposite, states can do away with Daylight Saving Time(Arizona & Indiana have in the past), they can't do away with real time.

Some Indian once said, “Only the white man's government would be so stupid, As to cut a foot off the top of a blanket, sew it onto the bottom, and think they have a longer blanket.”

Even on standard time you can do this. It will get darker later no matter if we spring forward or not. Also we've had these amazing invention called lights, they work great

Well that Indian is stupid. No one thinks we have a longer day because of dst, we just have more light in the afternoon.

I don't ever know. I'd heard this was a lock and I told people about it. Then it didn't happen. It made me look like a FOOL!

I'll believe it when I see it.

The more daylight in the afternoon, the better. Those who want it to get dark earlier than 9:00pm are probably fat and out of shape.

Is this the same Indian that showed up with a knife to a gun fight?
