  • OOPS!

    A few minutes ago (at 11:00 a.m.) I telephoned Marisol at college to inquire about her spring break and summer plans.  After many rings, she picked up her telephone.

    You know it's a bad sign when a panic-stricken, sleepy voice answers,  "What time is it?"

    It turns out that Marisol has a class which begins at 11:10 a.m. on Wednesdays.  As devoted readers might suspect, our conversation terminated immediately.

    Without previously knowing it, apparently I am an excellent alarm clock.
