When The Clock Broke

Vacation reading: When the Clock Broke: Con Men, Conspiracists, and How America Cracked Up in the Early 1990s by John Ganz. “With the Soviet Union extinct, Saddam Hussein defeated, and U.S. power at its zenith, the early 1990s promised a ‘kinder, gentler America.’ Instead, it was a period of rising anger and domestic turmoil, anticipating the polarization and resurgent extremism we know today.” Thomas Zimmer: “It deserves all the attention it is getting… With this book, Ganz delivers the most illuminating pre-history of Trump’s rise, one that propels our understanding of what Trumpism is, where it comes from, and why it appeals to so many people forward in crucial ways.” When the Clock Broke: Con Men, Conspiracists, and How America Cracked Up in the Early 1990s Amazon Kindle EditionGanz, John (Author)English (Publication Language)422 Pages - 06/18/2024 (Publication Date) - Farrar, Straus and Giroux (Publisher) Check Price on Amazon

  • Waterbury clock
    Hey guys, reviving this thread because I am stumbed and would appreciate some advice. I was looking at the clock today and it is not chiming properly, and the pendulum stops after around a minute, any idea what may be causing this? the clock had a full overhaul in 2017 so I dont think there should be anything broken... could it be that the lubricant on the spring has gunked up?

  • Ridgeway grandfather clock
    I had posted recently about my Ridgeway Grandfather clock about it keeping perfect time but quit chiming. I found inside the cabinet on the base floor a little button and spring. Any idea what it is, maybe why it isn't chiming.
