There are just a bunch of people that like to set up in the evening and simply pour in the morning. They are alert in the evening, not so in the morning until they've had that first cup...A Bunn brews a pot of coffee in like 2 minutesnot a lot of need for planning ahead when it's that fast.
I can't wait to join that club someday. I am a slave to the clock and have been since I was a kid. Would love the luxury of never having to care what time it is.
So am I Jerry! But the vast majority here still have to work to make a living.......
)That would drive me cuckoo.Only nine?
My parents are clock collectors, so I grew up in a house with eventually 400+ clocks. (Let that sink in for a minute
They downsized the collection a few years back when they sold the big house, but still have over 100. I probably have a couple dozen now that I kept when I moved out and/or bought since.
It drives me cuckoo too having to change most of our clocks for Daylight Savings time when it is that time again and again and again.That would drive me cuckoo.
Az doesn't celebrate DST. Thank god.It drives me cuckoo too having to change most of our clocks for Daylight Savings time when it is that time again and again and again.
We used to live across the street from a church that rang their bell every quarter hour. People visiting would hear it and ask "doesn't that bother you ?" and we had to ask what they were talking about. After no time at all, you don't hear it anymore.... We have a Howard Miller mantle clock that chimes the same or maybe it's only on the half-hours. I can't say ... because we no longer hear it.I had a antique looking mantle clock that I got from Walmart over 20 years ago. It used to chime on the hour. I ended up cutting the chime out quickly. Every hour drove me crazy , especially at night when I was trying to sleep.
Only two of the nine have to be set manually, spring and fall. The others, two are magically set by the long wave signal from Denver and two are on internet radios which are the most accurate all the time. One, the latest addition to my clocks is a Honeywell lite switch with a built in clock set by longitude and latitude to turn on the patio lite at dusk and off at 11PM.It drives me cuckoo too having to change most of our clocks for Daylight Savings time when it is that time again and again and again.
I have an Emperor clock which I built from a kit 40 years ago. It still works unless I forget to raise the weights.
I think that's the same brand that my Dad built and from around the same time frame. I'm not certain, but I don't think it works properly anymore.
sounds like we could be married to the same woman. My little beauty hates the my home theater setup because she can't rearrange the furniture every 2 weeks, because she can't lift all the heavy equipmentSo I upgraded from the original Hopper to the Hopper3. My wife is happy that the great tuner battle is over, but she HATED the red stripe on the front of the unit. I didn't care much for it either but I could live with it.
She brought home this from the art section of Hobby Lobby...
And now the Hopper3 looks like this
Everyone is happy now...
