Dude, I go to work when it’s dark and I leave work when it’s dark.

So does that mean the days are shorter than 24 hours or does that mean your work day is from 1 am till 5 am?

If it makes you feel any better, the Lions’ fans on the board had a great Sunday.
Hope this helps.

The Joe Pera affect...

Btw, is he a real local just hanging out in town? Or did he just choose the town for his setting?
That's entirely how I picture my Marquette.

I forget if it’s this coming Monday or the Monday after we spring forward but one of these Mondays, there are a significant number of automobile accidents. Everyone be careful.

I’d never heard of him, but now want to check out his work. From his wiki, it appears JP is a NY state guy. No idea of his connection to Marquette. More likely, people are moving to Marquette to be closer to Motown and Bugsy Sailor.

Bugsy is brilliant and our greatest ambassador.

And a Spartan!!

Look on the "bright" side. At least you're on the far west end of the time zone. I pity the poor fuckers in Maine. Their kids probably get home from school just before it gets dark.

Mentioned before. Remember summers in the Keweenaw as a kid. The Western sky was still a little light at 11-11:30 pm. Thought that was really cool.

Still want MI to back to Central Time like it was from 1885 until 1915 when Detroit shifted to EST for Wall Street and 1931 rest of the state followed.

I didn't know about that, as it was just a couple of years before my time (unlike tGreenWay and DWags). I'm all in on the switch to CST and opting out of DST.
