I write so few cheques today the registers that come with them are used

good. Do the same thing with my yearly calendars I print out in December. I will save coloured paper for this wheneve

Whenever? ;)

For this whenever I print a new calendar.

I get so many calendars in the mail there's no need for

me to print any out.... I give most of them away....

My calendars have 1x1.5" boxes. I write a lot of stuff in there, such as times and places where I'm working, appointments, notes of all sorts, etc. Most of those free one's don't have a large enough box for all that.
Sometime after the new year that old calendar is put away and probably
never seen again, but its there in a box somewhere.

Joe,

I write so few cheques today the registers that come with them are used
up in no time.

Same here.

For this whenever I print a new calendar.

I thought about that. One year I ordered a wall calendar and a desktop calendar of "Crusoe, The Celebrity Dachshund". Those always brought a
smile to my day.

Years ago, there was the "Monkeyshines" calendar...which had
chimpanzees dressed in various attire, in various settings, with bizarre sayings, such as:

1) A grumpy old piano player in the bar, with a mug of beer on the
piano, snarls "My Name Ain't Sam. And, I won't play it again".

2) A male and female on this bench, and one saying "Hi, Clarence!! Your
wife and I were just sitting here waiting for the bus!!" <G>

3) Dressed like Napoleon, he growled "Josephine!! You've got to quit
starching my underwear!!" Ouch.

4) A female at the church organ, saying "And, would you believe I've
never had a lesson in my life??!!"

5) A prospector, noting "This is gold, all right. The IRS is already on
my trail!!"

6) A worker, lighting up a cigarette, near boxes of dynamite,
gasoline, and other flammables, with signs of "DANGER!! NO SMOKING OR
OPEN FLAMES!!" all round...noting "You have to be careful. Some people
don't believe in signs".

7) A male, watering the lawn, laments "More water, more grass. More
grass, more work. You can't win".

8) A driver, in a jeep, at what appears to be the end of the road,
laments "So a broken line on the map means PROPOSED HIGHWAY??!!".

There are a bunch more in the bedroom on the wall, but I don't feel
like looking at them for more.

Sometime after the new year that old calendar is put away and probably
never seen again, but its there in a box somewhere.

There are several old calendars here that I need to just throw out.
Many organizations keep sending stuff to my Mom, but obviously since
she's dead now, she has no use for them. Yet, even if you write a letter
to them, stating the person is deceased, it likely goes into the trash
can, or they think YOU can pick up the responsibility for donations now.
