I did laundry yesterday and noticed one load of wash made a clicking-banging noise throughout its spin cycle. When I finished unloading the machine I was a bit shocked to find my Timex watch lying on the bottom of the wash tub. I could not believe I had accidentally thrown the watch in with the clothes. When I reached in and retrieved the watch the first thing I noticed was the condensation under the watch crystal. I examined the watch face closer and could see the second hand ticking away. What do you know, John Cameron Swayze was right.

Amazing. I remember the saying, but not the commercial.
You find the most fascinating things - yup, takes a licking and keeps on ticking. Wasn't there one with an elephant?
I remember that one, too. :)
I'm thinking this one came from the late fifties. I don't remember it but I do remember the ones from the sixties.
I have done the same and yeah it does keep on ticking!
Yep, what do you thing would happen if you tried it with a $10,000,000 watch?
