Hello to everyone, there are a lot of things I (Heith) am no good at, and typing is one of them. I took a couple of keyboarding classes in high scool, but I am uncertian what actually took place during the aprox. 2,700 ticks of the plain-white-round clock. You know the kind you buy when you really dont feel like spending a dime, but you have to have a clock. Yeah that one, with the extintion cord running up the wall to meet it. Anyway, I wish I could remember. There is really no reason why I told you that, but I guess there doesn't have to be. I will probably post something I am good at tomorrow, so check back then!!! (((Some of the cheaper clocks will also run off bateries. It just kind of depends on what you are looking for.)))
