What's depressing is how little has changed in 2 years.
Except that this year, I forgot about the old school mantel clock after I stopped it.
We did acquire an old anniversary clock (1 of those inside a bell jar style, made in West Germany during the Cold War) earlier this year, but all the moving around knocked the pendulum loose, so it now gives correct time twice a day  Which brings up how hard it is to find a clock repair service these days

That's a good question. I'd say the average house has 7 to 9 clocks,including wrist watches,computer,cell phones and don't forget the one in your car. I just changed back the time in the other clocks,by the one in my cell phone that corrected it self.

Another twisting of your arms to make a post. (actually only twisting the hands)
How many this year and are you also getting more that self adjust? I re-calibrated 22 total with 7 that did the change for me.

My alarm clock. Computer and cell auto correct. I do have another clock but that stays on summer time.

I counted 23 ... but, I'm guessing there are a couple I haven't thought of.  |

After Daylight Savings Time ended, I stopped in to visit my severely dyslexic friend. He was busy covering his penis with black shoe polish. 
I said to him, "You idiot! You're supposed to turn your clock back !

so far this year I reset 17 time pieces and had 5 set themselves. I need to work on inverting that ratio.
