That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for June 12, 2023

The inspiration for the invention of the digital clock.

What you do for family: Every time her sister visited, the clock stopped and Margaret had to reset it.

So is Daisy a minute maid?

Mileva Marić had a better understanding of time and understood why they called him “Always Late Albert”.

Stalking the domestic cuckoo.

“Dang it woman. You’re suppose to be wearing a short skirt.”

This is when Amy began to rethink the location of her three minute egg timer

Very clever, Steve.

Ilsa enjoyed a German two-step in double-time!

Why is it up so high?

WHERE is Sol??

“Just one more setback in a lifetime of them”, thought Shirley.

I think there was an Oscar-winning movie made about this. The title was “High Noon”.

Helga now regrets asking her husband, Johann the Giant, to hang the clock and the picture of her mother on the wall.

FREE OUR EXILED POETS!! (ಥдಥ)

“Mädel an der Uhr” (Girl at the Clock), 1893

On an AFV video, the chair would break any moment.

Though in our admiration she basks/ She’s burdened with onerous tasks. / We are keenly alert/ To what’s under her skirt/ but in this dump, nobody asks…

How does she know what time to reset it to?

Ever the contrarian, Bette was going to make sure that a stopped clock wasn’t right twice a day.

If he doesn’t show up at 7 pm, I’ll go to the movies instead!

“And the clock stopped, never to go again, when the old man died…”

The time change is driving her cuckoo.

Helga had missed her audition, so she turned the clock back to get a second chance.

Daisy was getting tired of having a high time at home.

Interesting, isn’t it, that the minute hand is the big hand?

AMEN! Quit mucking about with it and leave everyone one STANDARD TIME!

She harrumphed while setting the time, thinking if she wore a shorter skirt she wouldn’t need the step stool to get on to the chair.

She was going to have a talk with the coo-coo about starring down her bodice.

Again, a larger strip image is shown by (Ctrl- or right-) clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #3146 (June 11, 2023) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment, and using the dropdown menu (even larger if you trim what’s after .png from the URL). I have added a comment there pointing to the blog entry with my comment containing info about this artist I used to point to here. So far, 2 works by him have been used here, the December 7, 2022, strip being the prior.

Ilsa the maid never understood why, buy the master always insisted that she hike up her skirt when she sets the clock.

just so Elvire doesn’t get stood up yet again, she backs the clock up to give him a better chance to be on time.

Here we go again — Spring forward, fall back. (Or is it the other way around???)

I am so glad my boss isn’t smart enough to realize I move the clock up 15 minutes every day to get off early.

Daisy all ways considered her ankles to be her best feature and was constantly coming up with new ways to show them off.

When I realized that my entries here on GoComics were no longer visible to anyone other than me, I began writing my comments on Steve Melcher’s blog and continued to do so until my “exile” ended and most (but, unfortunately, not all) of my earlier posts were restored. Copied below is my entry for today from the blog:

/// It’s the time to be setting clocks back,

so it’s also the time to keep track

of their home’s smoke alarm,

which will keep them from harm.

(When there’s smoke, Grandpa’s cough turns to hack.)

/// There’s a very precarious climb

just to see the clock and set the chime.

“Tell me why,” she’d beseech,

“Hang it out of my reach?”

Grandpa’s answer to her: “It’s high time.”

/// The real reason that Grandpa preferred

the clock up near the ceiling occurred

every hour. It would fall,

(if hung low), off the wall

from cat pouncing upon cuckoo bird.
