Have you ever noticed how often we tend to look at our watch.  Sometimes it is a habit, something to do when you are thinking about your day.  But what about the other times, like when you are signaling to your wife, perhaps unconsciously, that you need to go.  Or when you are tired of listening to the latest gossip, either at work or elsewhere.  I wonder if we are more focused on time than our ancestors?

Anyway, seems like to me that clocks can be a signal, a piece of furniture, a work of art, or just a clock.  What do you think?

Here is our clock of the day.   Hope it is one you are interested in.  Seth Thomas has gone out of business as of January 14, 2009.  I wonder what that will do to the price of their clocks?
