According to a reliable report from Magistrate Perry Reeder at the Adair County Judge Executive's office, who checked the clock out the window of Suite 1, Adair Annex, the clock was right on time at 8:45amCT, Friday morning, November 18, 2011.

Volunteers are still needed. Read More... | Permalink | Comments?
