Reminds me of the time, many years ago, that I took Mrs. Neon to NYC for the first time.  Told her we were going to Little Italy for a real Italian dinner.  Went to a famous restaurant (famous for a mob hit there many years ago).  The waiter's name was Juan.  I thought, funny, I never heard that name in an Italian family.

My "Changing the Clocks" rant for the day.

 

Went to Walmart early this am for the first time since the time change.  Was there shortly after opening and there were so many cars already in the parking lot.  Couldn't even park in my preferred first row parking space.  I even had to wait to check out.  WHY?  Why are so many people shopping so early.   Time change I assume.

 

Why can't they wait until I'm finished?

 

Very frustrating.
