“Tomorrow
He was going to be all that a mortal should be
Tomorrow.
No one should be kinder or braver than he
Tomorrow.
A friend who was troubled and weary he knew,
Who’d be glad of a lift and who needed it, too;
On him he would call and see what he could do
Tomorrow.
Each morning he stacked up the letters he’d write
Tomorrow.
It was too bad, indeed, he was busy today,
And hadn’t a minute to stop on his way;
More time he would give to others, he’d say
Tomorrow.
The greatest of workers this man would have been
Tomorrow.
The world would have known him, had he ever seen
Tomorrow.
But the fact is he died and he faded from view,
And all that he left here when living was through
Was a mountain of things he intended to do
Tomorrow.”

I vied for twenty five but to no avail, then I thought I'd been short changed with twenty three. When I looked around I noticed both the maimed and the maimers had twenty four, both the rich and the poor had twenty four, both the young and the old had twenty four.....and then I went looking for the door!

"Why wear a watch when you have a mobile phone?" ^
The battery in a mobile phone only lasts a day or two when away from a place where it can be recharged, whereas an old-fashioned watch can be kept working with a few twists of the rewinding knob. Even a battery-operated wrist watches will last for months before the battery needs to be replaced which makes it a more reliable time telling device.
