Half Past Midnight
User ID: 78659823 United States 03/14/2021 07:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've had this happen too. I live in AZ where we don't celebrate/participate in the time scam but some time pieces/appliances/devices have it built in. The computer from another state had 1 time and the microwave had another time. I figured the cell phone would tell me which was right but that had a third time. So I had to turn on the radio and wait for them to tell me. |

Have no idea if that was a thing in other places |
