I like DST because during the DST months I save money on lamp oil. The fewer times I have to hitch the team and ride into town to get my lamp oil can filled at Jeb's General Store the more time I can spend at home.
Damned whale oil is getting expensive, too. And don't even get me started on the price of goose quill pens and parchment.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
