Transcript:
Mrs. Olsen: Out of my way. I'm late. Frazz: Forgot to set your alarm clock for daylight savings time? Mrs. Olsen: Forgot to re-program the javamatic timer. I had to wait an hour for my coffee! Frazz: I'm not sure technology benefits everyone the same. Girl: I can't wait until i'm old enough to use that one!

Look, zap some water in a cup, add a half a teaspoon of Taster’s Choice, some sugar, 4% milk and you’re good to go. I suppose it comes as no surprise that I’ve never been in a Starbucks…greasy spoon coffee costs too much…

Jef, would you please name some of these other kids? I suggest Riley for this one….sounds like she’s friends with Caufield…..

Are those pajamas? I certainly hope so, noone should be allowed to wear that kind of clothing near kids for fear of giving them nightmares.

She hasn’t had coffee, in her pajamas, jet lagged form DST, and late to school on the first day of spring break. Only the janitors and district repair crews are in this week. My wife the teacher is still in bed waiting for her coffee.

I knew true coffee lovers would call me on that! It drives my friends crazy too……..

Living without DST is OK. Did it in MI and now HI. Can’t imagine life without Kona coffee.

I don’t mind DST. It is the stupid CHANGING all of the time (and yes, I consider twice a year to be ALL OF THE TIME) that I absolutely hate. Why can’t we just stick with one time or the other and be content? I mean, seriously, who is actually benefitting from the whole time change anyway? In our increasingly 24 hour Global society, it isn’t as though everything closes down at 5:00 anymore.

Let me think: “Spring ahead, fall over. No, wait: Spring forward, far out.” No that’s not it…..

I take it that Mrs. Olsen is unaware that you CAN just turn on your coffeemaker and brew a pot, without using a timer?
