On this episode of Naptown Buzz, your source for all things Indy, Mel McMahon & Brian Groce hit Indianapolis Motor Speedway for Indy 500 Opening Day morning/early afternoon activity.

We managed to snag Pippa Mann for a quick interview, but pulled a “Stanger” and didn’t get it recorded (doh!!!).  But never fear, Mel did a good recap of the interview.

Now that the rain delay is over I shall head back outside to see what happy hour brings us today.  More Indy 500 coverage to come!!!

Confound You DST!!!

by Brian Groce on March 14, 2011

in Blue Shotgun,Brian's Blogs

Well, it happened again.  And I’m complaining about it again. Daylight Saving Time (DST) kicked in yesterday and is rearing it’s ugly still head today.

Here’s my take:

  • 1/3 of the year is “standard” time, 2/3 of the year is not. This makes no sense to me.
  • If you want to change it, fine, but do it once and be done with it. Let’s spring ahead forever.
  • Here in Indiana we’re already way off from “sun time” the way it is & now the sun will be up until 10pm in the summer. Which is great…if you don’t have kids that you’re trying to convince that it’s nighttime. How about we switch from the Eastern Time Zone to the Central Time Zone?

That’s the gist of my thoughts on DST & Time Zones.  What are yours?
