Bizarre Moment of the Day

In the hallway where my office is at work, we have a clock on the wall. It's a typical clock -- black perimeter, white background, large block numbers. So I'm standing outside of my office and talking my co-workers who sit next door, and I notice that the clock isn't correct. In fact, it's not moving at all. The hand that tracks the seconds (what is that called? the 'third' hand?) is trying to move forward, but isn't going anywhere.

What time is the clock stuck on?

8:46. (Of course, no distinction as to whether that's AM or PM.) It's a little odd because of the significance of 8:46am on this day -- the time when the first airplane hit the World Trade Center five years ago to the day.

Very bizarre. Very creepy.
