Replacing the battery didn't solve the problem. I finially switched to a watch on a caribiner type hook on my belt and so far have managed not to kill it. I seem to have a similer effect on coffee makers, but so far my alarm clock and computer have survived just fine. It is weird though.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11924993310937754220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-53104470508324353932008-07-03T20:25:00.000-04:002008-07-03T20:25:00.000-04:00I love wind up alarm clocks....Tick....Tick...... ...I love wind up alarm clocks....<BR/>Tick....Tick......

It was banged with crutches every morning for 4 years (high school) and slapped the living s*** out of almost every morning since. It has crossed the Atlantic not once but twice, to Scotland and back, in a soft-sided suitcase. It has run on 80-year old Scottish wiring.<BR/><BR/>It still works perfectly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-30329485110933805382008-07-03T10:42:00.000-04:002008-07-03T10:42:00.000-04:00Anyway, after we had picked up some bratwurst, the...<I>Anyway, after we had picked up some bratwurst, the biggest can of baked beans I’ve ever seen in my life, and a Hawaiian shirt for Mike, we stopped to look at the electronics. </I><BR/><BR/>So, you shop at Costco too??<BR/><BR/>;)Lesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09281676558516912247noreply@blogger.com
