Here is a another small collection of jokes that have either a direct or indirect connection with watches and time. I’m sure that some of them will make you smile.
CAT time
If twenty dogs run after one cat, what time is it? Twenty after one.
Lunch time
At lunch time, sit in your parked car w/sunglasses on and point a hairdryer at passing cars. See if they slow down.
Universal Time
A customer calls the round-the-clock tech support hotline to ask what hours the call center is open.
– The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Says the technician who answers the call.
Customer asks:
– Is that Eastern or Pacific time?
It’s Time
Even though he could not tell time, my three-year-old grandson was wearing a watch when I visited. Later, when I was putting on my coat to leave, I asked him what time it was. He looked at his watch blankly, then brightened. “It’s time for you to go,” he answered triumphantly.
Time Management
The church wanted to help their congregation cope better with the stresses of modern life, and decided to offer a course in Time Management.
Soon after the course was announced, a member telephoned the Pastor.
– What time does the course start, Pastor?
– Oh… six-ish, seven-ish….

Hi-Tech Watch
A man is at Grand Central Station waiting for his train that leaves at 6 p.m., but he has forgotten his watch. So he looks for someone to ask the time. He spots a guy carrying two suitcases and sporting this fabulous hi-tech watch, so he asks him for the time and the guy replies:
– Sure, which country?
– How many countries have you got?
– All the countries in the world!
– Wow! That’s a pretty cool watch you’ve got there.
– That’s nothing, this watch also has a GPS facility, fax, e-mail and can even receive NTSC television channels and display them on its miniature active color pixel LCD screen!
– Boy, that’s incredible. I wish I had a watch like that one. You wouldn’t consider selling it by any chance?
– Well, actually the novelty has worn off for me, so for $900, if you want it, it’s yours.
The watchless traveler can hardly whip out his checkbook fast enough to hand over a check for $900.
The seller takes off the watch and gives it to him.
“Congratulations, here is you new hi-tech watch.” Then, handing the two suitcases over as well, he says, “And here are the batteries.”
Don’t Ignore the Kids
The 12-year-old boy stood patiently beside the clock counter while the store clerk waited on all of the adult customers first. Finally he got around to the youngster, who made his purchase and hurried out to the curb, where his father was impatiently waiting in his car.
– What took you so long, son? he asked.
– The man waited on everybody in the store before me but I got even.
– How?
The youngster explained happily:
– I wound and set all the alarm clocks while I was waiting. It’s going to be fun at eight o’clock.
