At random: Fleet Admiral Halsey in a book called "The Admirals" when asked "What is the ultimate strategic weapon that is bringing the enemy to its knees? Halsey's reply "If I had to give credit to the instruments and machines that won us the war in the Pacific, I would rank them in this order: SUBMARINES, FIRST; RADAR, SECOND; PLANES, THIRD AND BULLDOZERS FOURTH."

Yeah, 24 hour clocks do help those that have difficulty telling the difference between daylight and dark. There are those folks that have trouble understanding time zones, date lines and such.
Shane thinks it's real cool that Mr. Blue lives where it's tomorrow and he asked if that is why he talks funny. Ahhh, but of course, I told him. Shane is my 5 year old Grandson for those that don't know.

At least it's a digital clock.  If it was analog it would have to run counter-clockwise down there in Oz.  (oops, that would be "anti" clockwise for you blokes...)

Actually, CCW is 'widdershins' for those of Celtic persuasion. (As Blue must be, based on personality traits.)

Awww geeezzz Patti, from that angle it makes me look like I do all the chowing down instead of Blue. Of course you notice Blue has his arms wrapped around his belly holding it in.
