Never say it cannot get even worse

Sigh:

Suspects were nabbed and shipped to Gitmo because they wore cheap watches. A specific model of watch — a Casio style released in the 1980s — was suspected to be used as a timer by al-Qaeda operatives. People in Afghanistan were seized and sent to the detention facility because they were wearing the watches, but most have been quietly released because of a lack of evidence.


Good thing they weren't "Swatches" because everyone who appeared on MTV in the 80s would have been arrested. Run "DMC" Run!

I have worn Casio F-91W watches for almost 20 years. It’s a cheap, accurate, durable watch with a practically indestructable plastic band and a stopwatch function, and if they break on the factory floor, you can get one just about anywhere.

I switched over to the W-96H last year because I couldn’t read the smaller numbers on the F-91W without my specs.

Public confession is good for the soul. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Have mercy on me.
