One of my sisters' boyfriend works a weekend shift and they change the clock between shifts rather than at 2.



What do her other boyfriends do?

tenders- what did you do when you crossed the Date Line ?

I know, I know... those wild ceremonies...

Crossing the Date Line is just the same as any other time change except that you change your calendar too. Many parts of the Navy, particularly communications systems, operate on "Zulu" (Greenwich) time so having that run constantly makes it somewhat easier to grasp the concept of the changing time zones.

The wild ceremonies come from crossing the EQUATOR, which I've technically done a dozen or more times at sea but only celebrated twice--once on each deployment. I was a slimy, slippery wog on the receiving end of this the first time and the giving end the second time.

And here's what I learned: 'tis much better to give than receive.
