I call it “National-Rob-Everyone-of-an-Hour-of-Sleep-for-no-good-Reason Day.” The real deal is that store owners like it because people stay out later and shop more. In the meantime, accidents and deaths statistically increase, because even that change of an hour disrupts sleeping cycles. So once again in the US: MONEY REIGNS SUPREME! Increased accidents and death? Who cares, there’s profits to be made. Everyone else can just go away, so long as you make sure to shop on your way wherever you’re going.
Wiley, it has been a pleasure to “stick with your silliness” over the years, which is funny, touching, trenchant, illuminating and insightful. Many thanks for your wonderful work and viewpoint, I’m looking forward to more!
Happy to see you whenever the spirit moves!
