Saved by the Light, Or Not
I am very, very confused. First, let me tell you this important thing. The Princess is very seldom confused by anything. I understand everything. Perfectly. Maybe one or two things get me mixed up temporarily, but for the most part I see things very clearly. I have been told on occasion that my way of looking at The World is somewhat disturbing, but the people who tell me things like that are usually confused themselves.
For example. Bev Hollis is a Photo Grapher. She creates photo graphs. Please tell me why anyone would misunderstand that, or attempt to tell me that I have made a spelling error. A photo is a picture. A picture is something like a map of something. A graph is like a chart. A chart and a map are somewhat related. Sometimes. The person who makes maps is called a map maker. Therefore it stands to reason that a person who takes pictures is a photo taker. I do not like the way the words photo taker join together. I like the idea that the person who is taking the picture is really making a map of your face. That means they are a photo grapher. What could be more clear than this? I have been told that this is "all one word". I disagree. I am right.
Now. Let us talk about what is really confusing me. That is the saving of day light hours.
First off, why do you need to save the daylight? It automatically comes back the very next day, so what do you think you are accomplishing when you try to save it. And where would you save it anyway? In your closet with your panties? Probably not. In the refrigerator? In your pig with your coins?
My Gram said that she thinks the daylight saving came about during the war. She says she believes that an extra hour or two of daylight allowed the farming people to work harder and create more food for the soldier people. Frankly, I think she is wrong. I have no way of proving that, but it just sounds stupid.
And here is another thing. How does anyone really know what the true time of day is? Who made up the rules? It would be hard enough to figure out what time it really was, but then even if you did know, how would you know for sure? And if you changed the time because you wanted to save some light, what if you couldn't remember where you put the time you saved? What if you put it in the pig with your coins and then someone came along and moved the pig? Where would you be then? You would have no money and no time. Someone told me that time was money. So, I rest my case. Now you are really screwed up.
The Princess wishes to abolish The Days of Light Saving. Just pick a time, set your clock and forget the whole thing. When the light comes in your bedroom it is time to get up and have breakfast. There are many more important things to worry about in this world. Like what shade of pink looks best on A Princess.
Love and Licks,
Daisy

Daisy:
I CONCUR completely! It is sheer nonsense that humans have nothing better to do than
change the time just so it looks like they're saving it. Those people probably signed up for those interest-only loans several years back thinking they were being BRILLIANT. Probably thought they were saving something then too.
I've always said it's just easier to hang back and let those humans battle out these details. Because, as you know, time takes care of everything.
