The hour that doesn't exist!

          I don't know about anyone else, but I am beginning to show signs of DHS (Defining Hip Syndrome).
Symptoms are: Increased cynicism, lack of motivation towards time related tasks, the nagging belief that everyone is a hipster, and various minor physical reactions to jazz music. 


In a brief attempt to repair my sanity, or what is left, I have decided to separate myself from these superfluous thoughts.


On to other topics, What happens to the the hour between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m. during the upcoming time change?
Hypothetically we are supposed to set out clocks forward around 2 in the morning, thus becoming 3 a.m. right?
So the hour from 2 a.m to 3 a.m is a mystery. 
We don't actually find that hour until fall back, which occurs seven months later. So that mystery hour is just floating around space, probably chillin' with Tupac and Elvis. 


Where ever it goes, I am just relieved that it eventually comes back. Time, like energy, is relative and cannot be subtracted - it is neither created or destroyed; It re-shapes itself.


It was Albert Einstein who said, 
"The only reason for time, is so that everything doesn't happen at once."


Einstein, most famously know for his Theory of Relativity, understood that the faster an object was moving, the faster time moved relative to the stationary object. Since none of us can actually travel at the speed of light yet, this may be difficult to test. I'll just take Al's word for it!
