Time to resurrect this thread and get folks thinking again...........
............and the impetus is tonight the clocks go FORWARD. "Spring forward, fall back"..........
So it is about 1990 I think, and we are in Owen Sound for spring salmon and trout. We have a good day on Saturday, get into some nice fish and later on we are having <<<AHEM>>> a "FEW" drinks,
probably had BBQ salmon for supper, blah blah blah......and now it is time to set our clocks for tomorrow morning's fishing. We probably argued for an hour whether it was 4 am on the old time, 4 am on the new time, 5 am on the old time, 5 am on the new time, maybe 6 am on the old time, 6 am on the new time..........and everybody but the host is feeling no pain. He keeps insisting that the CORRECT time is such-and-such, but the rest of us are not so sure.
To this day I don't recall if we got up at the intended time, or not........but that was a story told more than once at Watson's Tackle House in Owen Sound in later years.............
So tomorrow morning when the clocks go forward, I have to get up WHEN? (Oh yeah, I remember, I am an old retired fart and it doesn't matter!
)
