91. Obama applauds broken clock for being right twice a day
profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/12/26/obama-a

"Though a broken clock in the Oval Office didn’t have a chance to tell time tonight, it made some more news in a local repair shop.

Peter King of NBC reported during Football Night in America that President Barack Obama recently called the clock at a local repair shop to congratulate him it for being right twice a day.

President Obama reportedly told the clock "Clock, you ROCK," and then was ushered back to his Hawaiian hotel room for his afternoon nap. The clock's success gives all other broken household items and appliances hope.

In our view, Obama’s gesture also provides the clock with the kind of positive reinforcement that will help keep it out of any trouble when it's back in the Oval Office, once it is left to its own devices."
