Julian Secedes From Daylight Savings Time

Julian’s mayor has announced that he unanimously decided to have Julian withdraw from using daylight savings time. He evidently has this enormous cast iron biological clock that strenuously resists change and has been making him late all week and he also resents having to get up, in reality, an hour earlier each day. If that’s not enough, he certainly doesn’t like to deal with several people in town that have been grouchy as a result of the time change. He has garnered support from the schools because children have to ride the bus to school in the dark and are sleeping through the first hour of classes. “It’s good enough for the whole state of Arizona not to go on daylight savings and if Governor Schwarzenegger crams the sales tax on services through, I’ll be going to Yuma to find an accountant and mechanic anyway”, he said. Upon getting wind of the mutiny against daylight savings time, Governor Schwarzenegger has decided to create an essential state service that will allow any individual in the State of California to not go on daylight savings time if they pay a fee at the Department of Daylight Savings Time that was created to handle the onslaught of applicants. The Department of Daylight Savings Time is overseen by the Commission on Daylight Savings Time which meets twice a year and is made up of former state legislators who are paid $130,000 per year and cannot run again because of term limits. To make things more convenient for Californians, he is looking for local locations for the department that are near to DMV offices and will be staffed by employees that were laid off from the DMV to help balance the state budget. You will also be able to schedule appointments, but be sure to tell them what time you’re operating under when you get your appointment time.
