I kind of liked the clock, but then again, I
didn't have to live with this all my life.

While Tereza & her family most certainly strode
past this clock on their way to put up an obligatory
Soviet flag in their window prior to the 1989 Velvet
Revolution, I was parked in front of the TV watching
Super Bowl halftime shows & singing the "Star
Spangled Banner" at baseball games, a kinder &
gentler form of propaganda that I've come to
dislike as much as she does the clock.
