SUNDAY FUNNIES: OF WOMEN AND DAYLIGHT

 Hello Everybody! Koda Canine here!
I have a couple of different things to talk about today.

First off is the fact that today is INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY.
While originated by Vladimir Lenin (of all people) in 1922, the United Nations has led the promotion since 1977 and it has become a recognized global holiday/event.
All I can say about that is IT'S ABOUT TIME!
Women do as much as, or in some cases more than men. Especially in regards to child raising.
I know I wasn't the easiest puppy to get along with growing up, or so my mother always claimed.
Women have earned and deserve their rights.
To say or do otherwise is totally wrong.
Please respect and honor women not just on March 8, but the rest of the year as well.
And if you think I would make any jokes at a lady's expense, you don't know me very well, do you?

Now then, today is also when we set the clocks ahead one hour as Daylight Saving Time begins.
All I can tell you is that I woke up this morning after a ruff night of guarding my people's house from all kinds of potential intruders, like that stray raccoon that keeps raiding our trash cans, and at first I thought I overslept because the clocks all said it was an hour later than when I usually get up for the day.

I'm sure that will go over good with any boss whose employees show up to work an hour later than usual.
Anyway, as I'm sure you can see by checking out the Wikipedia link above, Daylight Saving Time is a summer event throughout much of North America and Europe, as well as some places south of the Equator.

But in all honesty, what are we saving?
Who sets the sun🌞 an hour ahead?
That would be one heck of a trip to adjust that clock, and by the time you made it back to Earth🌍, it would be time to turn around to make the trip to reset it for winter!

And how do farmers set their roosters🐓🐓 ahead one hour to crow on time?
After all, they work on the sun's schedule too.
They crow at sunrise to wake everyone up and crow again at sunset that it's time for bed, although I personally don't know anyone who actually keeps that kind of schedule.

And as far as I know, we don't get any interest on our savings. All we receive at the end of the season is our original hour back.
What kind of a system is that?
Depending upon the clouds and the weather, the sun will always be there to begin with.
Then again, I'm not a human so maybe I'm not supposed to understand all of this to begin with.
Being a dog, my big schedule events are eat, sleep, bathroom, guard and play times.
I reluctantly agree to vet visits because staying healthy is important and I love taking car rides, but that vet HAS to find someone else to stick that thermometer when they want to check my temperature!
♫25 or 6 to 4♫

But now it's time for a few more quick time based jokes.

What time is it when the clock strikes 13?
Time to get a new clock.

How can you tell when a digital clock is broken?
After all, there's nothing on the display to say so.
Or is that your first clue?

Why is time always hungry?
Because it goes back for seconds.
Say it out loud and you'll get the joke.

I threw my clock out the window because I wanted to see time fly, but all it did was fall to the ground and break.
I certainly didn't have any fun doing that.

♫Does anybody really know what time it is?♫—Chicago.
So on that note♫, take care.
STAY SAFE!
Have a great week and please come back next weekend for more Sunday Funnies when Larry the Leprechaun stops by for his annual visit.—KC.
