Kevin's Watch

Let us know when it happens.

Good start I think.

Once it's live, everybody notify all FB Watchers about it.

Looks good, TOM, but why should we care about a guy named Kevin Swatch?

I give it my blessing. I know I suck as an admin.

Kevin Swatch - Born in a small town in North Dakota (USA) in 1875, Kevin was a gifted child growing up surrounded by eight siblings in a small three room farm house. He left home at the age of fourteen to seek his fortunes and by 1895 had made his way to California and had opened his own bicycle repair shop near downtown San Francisco.

It was around this time that Kevin was first abducted by aliens. Late one evening he was walking the streets, enjoying the night air when a brilliant beam of light suddenly enveloped him. The next thing he remembered was lying on a long metal table. His head, arms and legs were immobilized by an odd mechanical device. Though he did not experience a passage of time Kevin, after 15 years, was returned to the exact spot he was originally taken and was nearly run over by a 1910 Whiting Runabout. Kevin discovered that his entire life had been erased in his absence. The store front of his business was replaced by a Fire Station due to the extensive destruction caused by the 1906 earthquake and he eventually discovered that every member of his family had disappeared as if they had never existed. Distraught, Kevin tried to go on with his life however something fundamental had changed. Kevin no longer aged. In 1940 he still appeared as a twenty year old and in early 1942 he was drafted into the United States Navy. After surviving a lengthy tour of duty, filled with close calls, Kevin finally returned to North Dakota in 1946. Five days after his return Kevin was again abducted but this time by a different group of aliens. Though Kevin didn't feel the passage of time, as before, he was returned twenty-seven years later to the very spot he had been taken in 1895. This time he was almost run over by a 1973 Buick Skylark. It was at this point that Kevin completely lost his mind. After being institutionalized for twenty-nine years in a maximum security hospital for the hopelessly insane, Kevin was released and in 2002 began calling himself Kevinswatch.com. He now spends his time obsessively moderating an obscure message board that bears his name. Thanks to his immortality Kevin will probably spend the rest of eternity staring blankly at a computer screen wondering what on Earth he could have done to deserve to be cursed in this way.
