Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons!

Okay...I need a timer on my computer.  There are times that I forget to do things because I'm in here and the world is out there.  (Un-needed things such as taking medication, checking food and so on... :blink)  I need one that can be set and has an audible alarm.  It needs at least a 4 hour countdown.  And the biggest thing is that it needs to be free and not have any nasties attached to it.  Any suggestions?

Do you have Microsoft Outlook on your computer?
If so, it will do all of that I think.   

If not...I'll look and see if I can find something.

Nope, Outlook Express is as close as I have.  (XP home edition)  I have hunted through all of the stuff already in my computer and haven't found anything close to a timer.   sniff

How about a watch with an alarm?

You must have a wrist, and if you don't, I don't even want to know.... hysterical hysterical

You know what would be neat, a little timer device one can put on the top center of your monitor, then when the timer went off a punching bag arm comes out and gets ya right in your forehead.....

That would sure bring ya back to the real world..... :clap

Boy I need to go to bed before I give any more advice........

Oh brother...such help...

I haven't owned a watch in better than 10 years after having one catch on a handle on a cabinet and nearly ripping my hand off... :blink

However this one deserves more thought...
