For some reason in a boring meeting I started thinking about how many clocks of any sort, any device that can tell me the time, that I have at home. I jotted down this list:

## LR Mantle clock 1 Fam rm Wall clock 1 Kitchen clock 1 Microwave 1 Office wall clock 1 Squeegee computers 5 MrsSqueegee computers 1 SqueegeeJr computers 2 Kitchen computer 1 iPods 2 iPads 2 Bedroom clocks 3 Cell phones 3 Pool remote control 1 XBox 2 PS3 1 Watches 1 Televisions 3 DVR 1 Alarm panels 3 Heater thermostat 1

Total: 37 clocks! Holy cow!

How many do you have? Only devices that will tell you the time count, not some devices that knows what time it is but has no display. Clocks in your car in the garage do not count.
