GO AHEAD, BACK UP!
It was a great comedy routine done
by the team of Abbot and Costello. They
would be sitting in a car parked in a drive
way with Lou Costello at the wheel. They
had to back up to get out. Bud Abbot would
tell his partner..."Go ahead" and Lou would
start to pull forward. Abbot would yell, "No,
back up!" The two would then go through the
same thing several times as Costello argued
about "going ahead" to back up! Well it was
funny at the time. And, speaking of time,
if you're reading this on Sunday November
6th you should have already "gone forward
to back up!" You see Easter Standard Time
went into effect here on the east coast at 2am
this morning. We have about 6 clocks in our
house and all of them had to be reset. But
three of them are the old fashion kind of
clock. You know, the one with a big hand
and a little hand. I was also told never to
turn those hands counter clockwise! Some
say you can damage the mechanism by
doing that. If that's the case the correct way
to reset the clock one hour earlier is to go
eleven hours ahead! Do the math! Next
project...trying to remember how to set
the clocks in our three vehicles. I suspect
I'll spend most of the extra hour we're
suppose to be getting re-setting all our
clocks!!! Hope you're right on time and
that all your NEWS is good!
