Time Is Wrong

Riddle: An old man lives in an old house in the woods and one day he thinks the time is going backward. He looks at the clock and it says half-past five and then he looks at it again and it says ten past five (and it keeps happening so next time he looks at it says half-past four). He gets scared and runs out of the house and meets up with an old woman and says "What day is it? Is it 11/02?" "It is 10/31," says the old woman. And so he runs around being scared until he looks up and the sun is falling backward out of the sky so he is sure that time is going the wrong way. How can this be?
Answer: The old man has a clock that is accidentally for left-handed people so it goes backwards, and he is so old that the old woman thinks he is a ghost so she thinks it is Halloween, and the old man has run around so much that he has forgotten which way is which so when the sun is going down he thinks it is going up backwards. Time is NOT wrong after all!!
