    I get asked that question alot too. Some people say why didn't you just call yourself Talldarknhandsome, or some like that?
    Some things are worth dying for, living is one of them.

    I've got a backwards clock, it's surprising how many people don't notice it is backwards. And how many freak out when they do realise.

    And a fake cuckoo clock (its electonic), that when the cuckoo pops out it says vulgar things. (And a couple of real cuckoo clocks) .

    Clocks are fun. And commforting, I love the ticking of clocks.
    Kindred spirit!

    Visiting old houses in the UK tends to be interesting if you like old classic style clocks. Some places have more than one a room, all old... mantle clocks, grandfather clocks, wall clocks... some beautiful timepieces.

    Well, you ask me what you want, and I can design & manufacture for you at a demon deal

    Does that sound like a sales pitch ??

    Remarkable! I also have one of these in the entrance to the house.
    Many comments are made about it.

    Ok, now I feel stupid. I just showed my wife the clock picture, and straight away she said "open other end, very neat"
    I hate it when that happens.
