Back in the mid 90's, I had a nice house in Santa Clara. Which is the city that sits north of San Jose. I had just got a divorce, and was trying to hang on to the house, by bringing in roomates. So there was myself, two other females, and one had a daughter of 3years.
I was haveing troubles with my alarm clocks, I say clocks because I went thruogh 4 of them in a month. The clock all had the same problems, no matter what brand or make. They would go off for no reason at all, I would set a certain time and it would not go off at the time set. They would change from buzzer to music on its own. The numbers would change at fast pace, like someone was trying to find a certain setting.
The problem was I had 2 jobs at the time. I was late so much to both of them that I was on my to termination.
One afternoon, I had set my alarm, and it didn't go off. I was late, and in a panic to get my waiter uniform on. I started to look under the bed for my shoe, and the radio on the clock starts playing. I look up at the clock and it turns off, I go back down to find my shoe, and now the buzzer goes off. I yell at the clock, "I don't have time for this", the buzzer turns off.
I go to work, it just so happens that one of my regular costumers at the time was a well known psycic. She tells me that the spirit is a young boy named Jeffery. He is about 6 or 7, and is a bit of a prankster.
So that night on my way home, I stopped at a store and bought a new clock. An Elvis clock, with the swinging hips.
I got home and hung the new clock. I then told Jeffery that this clock was his to play with, and he had to leave my allarm clock alone, because I was getting into alot of trouble.
The next day, I'm laying on my bed reading, and I get that eletric feeling on my scalp and back. I look at the Elvis clock, and the legs are swinging back and forth so fast that it might come off the wall.
Over the next year or so "Jeffery" leaves my alarm clocks alone, and plays with the Elvis clock. He can control the speed of the legs, and even make them stop. I latter find out that he has pulled pranks on my roomies, and the little girl plays in her room alone , with her imagenary friend named........Jeff

wow I'm so glad to have found this post. I too have had weird problems with my alarm clocks, not as extensive as yours though, but I share the Leave the Clocks Alone feelings.

I had gone through so many alarm clocks and at random times when I'd set them to go off at a certain time they wouldn't go off. now my first thoughts had always been hmm maybe I set it for pm rather then am, but no that would mean the day before they wouldn't have gone off right either. So my next thought had always been maybe the plug or battery and again no. Then I would add a different alarm while trying my old one again. Always the same story. Next day the old one would work fine. It never seemed to have a pattern to it and it wouldn't matter what clock I put down (new, old, battery operated, plug in, music, blaring beeps, even relaxing sounds) it would at some point just not go off. So I had started putting down two alarm clocks at once just in case one failed I wouldn't end up to class late. Then the weird part happened where both wouldn't go off, but yet again both were working fine later. I had even gone through it with 3 alarm clocks set for a certain time (a plug in, a battery and my cell phone). Crazy happenings and I still haven't figured it out.

And yes I even checked to make sure I wasn't hitting snooze without waking up with a tape recorder.
