So I got a Sony

I've got too much little stuff as it is.

I like alarm clocks with mechanical digital displays like that, they're not as jarring to look at in the middle of the night as some LED digital alarm clock. I have one made by General Electric.

I had been wanting one for a while(a few years), but I kept finding clock after clock that just didn't work when I plugged them in at the thrift store. So when I found one that did I bought it. I just wish the switch wasn't so hard to use, it sticks and makes it a two handed job... one to hold the radio, and the second to force the switch to slide... that and one with a snooze function would have been nice... I know there were some like that.. I just never found one that worked.
