Pat Paulk said...: Yeah, this strikes a familiar chord. Beats not waking up...; 7:57 AM
Bill said...: What's he got to be so happy about? It's 3 a.m. for pete's sake. Who's Pete, anyway? (That's the kind of question I ask myself at 3 a. m.)

Thanks, Vaughn and Pat.; 10:45 AM

Good one, Bill.; 5:16 PM
Bill said...: Yeah, collin, I've known lots of clocks like that.; 6:59 PM
Anonymous said...: I actually don't use an alarm clock anymore. I'm kind of programmed by now. :)

Good one, Bill.; 8:26 AM
