Clocks Outside of Time

My living room is 5 minutes in the future, though my study, where I write about robots and flying cars, is always in the present.

At my job, the computers are on time, but the clock in front of me is 2 minutes in the past, and the one behind me is 7 minutes into the future. Even the clocks give up trying to do a proper job.

In downtown Minneapolis, Gluek's bar is forever trapped at 2 o'clock, which is bar close.

The bus stop at 3rd Street & Hennepin used to be outside of time entirely, as if the hours and minutes hopped a bus and went off to see what time other clocks were keeping.
