> Back to the clock for one more comment. I had the math of the clock figured

out. The problem is that I have a hard time perceiving where the hands are in

relation to the numbers. Where is the big hand, where is the little hand, which

one is the big hand and which one is the little hand?

I'm usually fine with clocks, but there is one in our kitchen that

would give anyone a hard time, I think. It has second, minute and

hour hands, all black, and also a black alarm setting hand. Many many

times I think the alarm hand is the minute hand, and I'm trying to

time things cooking, reading a magazine at the table and looking at

the clock occasionally, and I think the minute hand is taking forever

to get to the next number ... lol.

I guess I should replace the clock sometime. It doesn't help that my

landlady likes it to be set about 10 mins fast as she's not good at

timekeeping, whilst I am very precise about it.

Argh!
