Thanks to Indiana's Governor Mitch Daniels, I'll be observing Daylight Savings Time for the first time in my life. What should I expect? Are there any side effects?

Wow, I'm only 31. I'm not ready to go just yet....

I think I"ll stay up and observe my digital cable box. Being a DST Newbie, I'm curious as to if/when my digital cable box clock with spring forward.

Yeah, I know I'm living on the edge....

Well, that doesn't sound too painful. I'm used to the jet lag feeling anyway since I have mild sleep apnea

Like most side affects you will experience head ache, nausea, stomach pain, diarrhea, vomiting, sleepiness, and if erections last more than four hours you better see your doctor or screw it just take a few days off to readjust!!!!

I had forgotten how many clocks I had to change...haven't done DST in 5 years! I'm quite glad Indiana decided to join the rest of the country.

The motto used to be...."Hey, we're Indiana! We don't change our clocks for nobody!"

You Illinois people don't have much room to talk when it comes to bad drivers...

Don't worry. To make up for it, you'll be able to live an hour of your life twice in October.
