How the hell did the time on my clock get pushed back an hour? I thought it was 8:07 but apparently it was 9:07.

:roll:

My alarm has battery backup since we're always tripping the upstairs circut - especially in the summer with air conditioners running. But It's the kind of battery backup where they clock isn't on, the time is just kept and the alarm still works. I noticed yesterday, that when it comes back on, it's 6 minutes fast. :x

Your clock doesn't want you to be late.

When people are late for something, I love the "My alarm didn't go off" excuse. As if the alarm chose today to not ring its' warning?

Quote:
Clocky is, quite simply, for people who have trouble waking up.

When the alarm clock goes off and the snooze button is pressed, Clocky will fall off of the bedside table and wheel away, bumping mindlessly into objects on the floor until he eventually finds a spot to rest. Minutes later, when the alarm sounds again, the over-sleeper must get up out of bed and search for Clocky. Because you employ multiple senses to find the clock, you are sure to awake before disabling the alarm. Small wheels enable Clocky to move and reposition himself, and an internal computer helps him find a new hiding spot every day.
