Blog about your antique clocks and collections.

My name is Rick Blackmon. I have loved antique clocks since I was old enough to watch my aunts wind theirs. I call myself The Elderly Geek. Why? I am 74 years old and I have worked on or with computers since July 15, 1957. I worked for IBM or its spinoffs from July 15, 1957 until March 31, 1996. Following my IBM career, I sold and installed computers for Computer City until they closed the Houston North Store. I then worked for Gateway, selling and installing computers until they closed their store. Wonder if I am bad luck or something. My wife Joyce and I have been married for 42 years. She had 2 daughters, I had 2 boys, and we had one son, a true Yours, Mine and Ours situation.
