And the lord god said, "How can I totally screw with the already screwy heads of the Bipolar people I created? Hmmm. What intangible thing can I adjust that no one else will notice much but that will turn their world all topsy turvy? What the hell does turvy mean, anyhow?...Sleep...Hmmm...I already gave them bad dreams and fitful sleep...Aha! I've got it."

And so, late in the winter when the Bipolar were just beginning to believe the mornings really would be light from now on, the Almighty Atomic Clock and its asynchronously orbiting satellite pulled out the most obnoxious trick ever and they called it Daylight Savings Time.

This will most certainly be followed by that other intangible of the Bipolar world, a visit from the Mood Fairy.
