AM or PM?

           A few years ago I took my grandson Ben, age 6, on an early spring trip to open up our cottage in Upper Michigan. It was a beautiful Saturday and many chores needed to be done to get the place ready for the summer months ahead.
           When we first walked in the place Ben noticed that the kitchen clock wasn't working. I thought I'd give him the job of fixing that problem. I told Ben to get a new double A battery from the drawer, replace it in the clock and set the time, so we could get started.
           To my surprise he accomplished that task in about 2 minutes. But I felt the need to tease him a bit after praising his fine work.
           "Ben," I asked him, "that's great, but how do we know if it's AM or PM?" I thought I had him stumped.
           Not so, he promptly replied ... "simple grandpa, just look out the window."
