Did you know that clocks in stores usually start set at 10:10 so they look "happy"...they do it to digital clocks as well and that just looks weird...In a lot of movies when the characters are in their bedroom you will see that their clock says it is 10:10 because nobody every even set the clock before it became a prop...

Aww man...I just watched a movie the other day and all the clocks in the movie all said 10:10...it never changed...How would you not like change the time on the clock? They've been in this scene for 5 minutes, but that clock still says 10:10...great movie though, Envy with Jack Black and Ben Stiller...

The Analog but flippy type ones...the flap clocks...so I guess they aren't digital, they are now retro, if you are old, then I mean the old style flippy number clocks that they are now selling again...not digital...they do start at 12..and it blinks...so excuse my earlier digitization of flippy card numbers...lol.

Only movie I fell asleep in the theater, and walked out. And I love jack black. May I was TOO high...I think I only laughed at one scene. Can't remember it though, somthing with a bow and arrow and a neighbors wife? Eh what evs.

And clocks are set at that time because it was at that time dude finished inventing the clock.

I found out a cool fact today. Remember Leif Ericsson, the first European known to have visited North America? He had a bastard half-sister called Freydis who also went on an expedition to Vinland.
