Amazon UK & DST

Damn, I just realized Daylight Savings time starts Sunday morning. Ick. I hate springing forward. Why, in this day and age, can't we just pick a time and leave it alone? The whole world doesn't even do it and even those that do don't do it at the same time. They were saying on Art Bell's program this morning that England changes like a week before the United States.

Speaking of England, the internet is sooooooo cool. I ordered a CD from Amazon UK the other day. It was The Tribe Soundtrack that isn't imported to this country. One sold on eBay for more than it cost to get it from England. Wild. It'll probably get here before the stuff I ordered from the US Amazon site since one of the items I ordered was available for shipping in 2-3 days. The subtle differences are kind of cool. They use dispatched instead of shipped and basket instead of cart. Call me weird, but I thought it was kind of neat.
