   I always set my clock ahead ten minutes.

Hear the storyline. Roselind is very curious about why Jamie's clocks show different times....
Roselind: Hey, you have so many clocks in your bedroom.
Jamie: Yeah, I want to make sure I can wake up in the morning.
Roselind: But is there something wrong with your clocks?  None of them has the same time.
Jamie: I do it on purpose.  I set this clock ahead ten minutes, and this one back ten minutes, but I always set that one to the right time.
Roselind: So the alarms ring every ten minutes?
Jamie: Yeah.
Roselind: Are your crazy or what?
Jamie: No, I am a heavy sleeper.  I need thunder to wake me up.
