At the shelter today, three volunteers were giving a dog a bath. When they were done, they stopped at the clipboard on their way out to sign on. On the clipboard there's a place that says, "Sign out time."
The girl who was signing out looked at that, then up at our analog clock at the wall. It was one of those dime-a-dozen Walmart clocks, big white circle, black hands, you know the kind. She stared at the clock for a minute, then looked at me. I kid you not, she said, "What time is it?"
I looked at the clock. "Uh, 3:45?"
She bent over and wrote it on the clipboard. "Those clocks are weird," I heard her mutter.
Are analog clocks really that old?
