Had to add a wall clock at DeBary Glen

I just purchased a cheap wall clock to help me and visitors stay aware of what time it is. The other day Garold came by to drop off a slot car he wanted me to paint. He was supposed to be going to the 7-Eleven to get some aspirin for his wife but one thing lead to another until about an hour later he got a call from said wife. Needless to say he was gone in a flash.

Yes this is a hazard of "maximus slotitis". Many nights I'll tell the wife (boss, "she who must be obeyed", etc) : "I'm going downstairs to work on my cars for a bit" ......when next I look it's 2 AM and I've been at it for 4 hours+ :scared-eek:

Yup. It goes along with Catzilla, Frankencat, Golden Slotcar Retriever (and chomper), and assorted rug rats (who were never called that until they snagged a car and ran). Didn't somebody have a bigass bird who splattered the track with a personal autograph? We got history around here.

Huh.......I never knew that it had a name.
I just thought it was an odd space-time distortion brought on by the fields induced by small electric motors......
