I own an ancient and evil digital clock radio. It has a tape player, an alarm, and at times a radio. The radio hates me. The clock set controls loathe my very existence. This clock and I hate each other with an ancient and reverent passion. It’s done well waking me up for at least a decade, but begrudgingly I’m sure. These days it’s finally outright refused to do is play a radio station with any sort of reliability. What’s more, it mocks me. As I move about the room, the volume and tuning fight with each other — a screaming match of deafening static and distorted NPR. The time has come for a change.
