WASHINGTON (AP) -- An agreement was reached Thursday to extend daylight-saving time in an effort to conserve energy, but not to the extent the House approved in April.

House and Senate negotiators on an energy bill agreed to begin daylight-saving time three weeks earlier, on the second Sunday in March, and extend it by one week to the first Sunday in November. The House bill would have added a month in the spring and another in the fall.

Year round is the answer.
Kids love blinky hats.
That is why they sell them at the fair.
I need to have a talk with this "congress." ;)
No way I'll ever forget it. It was one of the funniest things I have read in my life.

Thanks. Why, It's a pipebomb for to blow up the planned parenthood...
I don't really know why I think it's funny, it just is. From where is it from? I know (or at least I think) there was a little cartoon boy too, but that's all I can remember.
