the show but they are still together and are doing/did TAR 16. Comparing
Natalie to Jordo is a compliment. However, I've seen no evidence that
Natalie is as naive or as "stupid" as Jordo is in some areas. Believe it
or
not, Jordo cannot tell time if a clock only has hands!

Um ... huh? You mean if it has hands but no numbers, she can't read it?
Yikes!

Yes, if the clock or watch isn't digital she can't figure out the time.
Folks her such as Doob, Goat and Dubya will verify this hard to believe
fact. Even if someone says some thing like the time is "quarter to one" she
doesn't know what they mean. She said if she's out and doesn't know the time
she'll keep asking people until someone says "12:45." Sad when you consider
she turned 23 last month.


Yep.. I can confirm it too. She is a very nice girl and she has a good
bit of common sense but it does seem like she may have some sort of
learning disability. We can rule out it being an act as she's said the
same sort of things during the game and after it. It's just part of
who she is.

That's strange. I wonder if you need to learn analog time at a young
age, and if you start out digital, can't pick it up later?

cripes, not only are there a lot of Google hits about it, there's a
facebook page for it

and

"Studies have shown alarmingly that many children today--and even a fair
number of adults--cannot tell time using an analog clock or watch because
they have only ever been exposed to digital timepieces."
