How many of our QOTD family still have clocks that need to "Spring Ahead" ? Oh, I have a clock that says it's 6:00 when it's actually 11:00... the batteries are working, the clock is moving, just somehow lost a lot of time... I haven't gotten around to fixing it... other than that, I think all my clocks are on the right time.
