Biological Alarm Clock:  Biological clocks are instinctive urges that tell us when to eat, when to sleep, and when to make babies. For women, oftentimes this biological clock goes awry, and begins to signal all sorts of jarring behaviors that seem at least to the man of the house to be most untimely. This biological alarm clock often jolts a woman into action, or more likely, into prodding a man into actions at the wrong time. A woman's biological alarm clock is often out of sync with her husband's own biological clock, which naturally runs much slower. The man compensates by resetting his own clock to give himself more time. Unfortunately, women have no capability to reset their own clocks. This results in their ringing just in time to spur them to tell their husband to vacuum the floor as he settles back to relax from a hard day at the office, or to mow the lawn of bathe the kids just as the big game comes on TV. All too often the wife's clock gets all wound up just as the husband's clock starts to unwind. Unfortunately, the only way to set back your wife's clock is with a blunt object to the head. However, this is not recommended since it would set her back in time permanently, and force you to do time, as in jail.
