    He is lucky that NASA did not send him a bill.

    that must’ve been quite a bite from the shark into something made of metal

    No big deal to me. Tennessee (where I den) is also split between time zones

    The city of West Wendover, Nevada uses Mountain Standard Time (unlike the rest of Nevada) because most of it’s customers come from Utah.

    That would account for the bare-foot prints I can see through my telescope.

    Ok, how did he forget his boots there? did he take them out after his walk while he was still out of the module?

    If you’d gotten a whiff, you’d have left them too.

    The Navy figured it out when the damage marks on the hull had the appearance of stars, half moons, and little ponies.

    In the interest of “getting guvmint off yer back”, Idaho is thinking of customizing time zones to each citizen of the state

    And some places like Indiana and Saskatchewan and Arizona don’t change their clocks. Because they don’t know how. At least in Arizona and Indiana.

    Idaho. That is beescause northern Idaho does most business with Spokane and southern Idaho does most business with Salt Lake.

    I like all the comments about the different timezone exclusions. Hawaii doesn’t change time – they aren’t close to anywhere else and their days are about the same length [year around] due to latitude. Smart people – those Hawaiians.

    I remember the cookie cutter shark story from animal planet, it bit a hole in the rubber part of the sonar device, mistaking it for the underbelly of whale, which is their natural food source.

    U.S. states that have 2 time zones: Washington, Oregon, Idaho, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Florida, Nevada. States with two time zones are not that unusual.

    If you look at Idaho without the neighboring states, it seems odd, dividing the state between north and south. But, not so odd if you look at it with the neighboring states.

    It wasn’t an “oops” that Neil left his boots on the Moon. There are 12 pairs of space boots that were left on the Moon. The astronauts left lots of stuff on the Moon that they no longer needed so they could bring back more Moon rocks.

    No human has been to the moon. It was all faked but the money spent was real!

    Come on Ripleys. It was NOT an Oops. It was done on purpose! Get it right, if you want to have any credibility.
