What Makes You Tick?




"I loathe the expression "What makes him tick." It is the American mind, looking for simple and singular solution, that uses the foolish expression. A person not only ticks, he also chimes and strikes the hour, falls and breaks and has to be put together again, and sometimes stops like an electric clock in a thunderstorm."
~James Thurber



This is one of the very many clocks in my Uncle's house; you could say he collects them, or that they collected him? One of the many, many things I love about him and most likely runs in the family;)
Speaking of 'breaking and  putting together again'...
