It would help if you told us what widget engine you are using.... 
 
Windows Gadgets... 
Mac OS X dashboard widgets... 
Yahoo widgets...

We own/are the Japanese military. So, we can station our troops there.

Under the Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security between the United States and Japan, the United States is obliged to defend Japan in close cooperation with the Japan Self-Defense Forces for maritime defense, ballistic missle defense, domestic air control, communications security, and disaster response operations.



We still have soldiers stationed in Germany and other locations around the world.  Mainly for security reasons or to have troops there in case anything happens around the area.

IS there an icon in the corner that looks like a cursive "i" that you can click? It should turn the widget around and you can set the timezone there.
 
BTW it seems like you son in the marines thing was useless information unless you're trying to set the time to where he is...

No, Lets say North Korea attacks Japan and Japan happens to be our allies. If we have troops stationed there we can assist our allies if they get attacked.

Pretty sure that is why he wants the option to see what time it would be in Japan.

It is more like being prepared.  These days anything can spring up anywhere in the world and the easier it is to send troops to an area, the better.

@Pie: He's mentioned it before in a feeble effort to add credibility to his claim that he's a mature 40-something.

You're using 4.5.2 of what?
 
If you're using OSX, there are simple Widgets available for this. I recommend TimeMap. Or iStat Menus (free/donation) offers that in the menu bar plus a whole lot more. If you're using Windows, I'm sure there are plenty of similar applications available to do the same thing, but you'd have to give us more informationa bout what OS/version you're using and what (if any) application you're trying to do this on. I don't recall any OS (linux/windows/osx) having an inherent multipleclock feature, though.

@OmegaPirate: Maybe that's what I'm thinking of...I'm pretty sure he's mentioned having a young daughter as well though. Maybe he's just lost track of the loose narrative thread he's been trying to weave through all of his trolling posts.

I did, and it was rather funny to see how many locked threads he has.  Anyway a week ago he said he had a marine son going to japan so at least he can hold this part of the story.  Maybe he's taking notes now.

Now that would be crazy. Too many Pies and RHCPfan24s would only equal two types of awesomeness clashing with one another until the world eventually exploded.

Buy a watch, set it to whatever time you wish, and tape it to the top of your monitor.

You still haven't made it clear what OS you're working with, and a few people have already made some decent suggestions about desktop clocks.
