Clock Kid

[Tom Joad]

Anybody been following this?

I have a little, and you know what?

I agree with what Bill Maher said about it.

The damned thing does look like a bomb to me.

I'll even go one further. I think this kid was doing a little trolling.

He knew that thing looked like a bomb and he was looking to cause a stir.

And I can't believe Obama let himself get played by this little smart ass and invited him to the White House.

I thought he was smarter than that.

When Ahmed Mohamed went to his high school in Irving, Texas, Monday, he was so excited. A teenager with dreams of becoming an engineer, he wanted to show his teacher the digital clock he'd made from a pencil case.

The 14-year-old's day ended not with praise, but punishment, after the school called police and he was arrested.

"I built a clock to impress my teacher but when I showed it to her, she thought it was a threat to her," Ahmed told reporters Wednesday. "It was really sad that she took the wrong impression of it."
