I don't have to reset their watches they have the inbuilt tummy-clock, just the same as every other pet. Breakfast has been later and they're not a happy bunch!

Actually, I just move the sun back one hour in the sky. Sun dials are just too hard to figure out.

My mechanic can't fix my car but half the time. My doctor's scale never gets my weight right. I think we need to find the guy that engineered that danged clock and have him start working on a bunch of other stuff!
