" Hey, do you know what time it is ? "

You tube song
Last Saturday night people were warned about the seasonal

    time change: " Set your clock ahead one hour ". I do enjoy waking up

    with sunlight in my face ! But I forgot about the most important clock,

    the digital alarm clock in my bedroom.

           Awakening twice in the darkness this past week, I turned on

    my bedside radio to WLKW . " Hey do you know what time it is ? " I




    hummed, recalling the song ( It reminded me of an  LSD time warp ! )

           The radio guy DID know what time it was. But he just had to

    be cute about it : Four times ! " It is now quarter to the hour" ...

    " It is five past THE HOUR...."  ... " It is now half past THE HOUR ".

     " It is now just THE TOP OF THE HOUR ! "

       I was rather annoyed : " WHAT hour damn it ? "

        Could not the radio personality just say : " It is five past FIVE "

    or " It is SIX o'clock ".. ( And you better get your ass out of bed ! )


          Am I not worth THE TIME OF THE DAY ?
