The clock tells the real news

The Judicial Nominating Commission was in town last week interviewing candidates for the circuit judge position that Michael Blackstone is vacating. A reporter sat through two interviews, then rose to leave.

Commission members laughed. Didn't the reporter find the interviews interesting?

A member looked outside the meeting room and realized why the next candidate wasn't present: The commission was actually running ahead of schedule.

Members laughed. A commission actually operating ahead of schedule? Now that's news.
