The magic of a web page a day

In 1979, the page-a-day calendar was born. It’s principally a guide on its facet, however the consumer rips off a web page every day.

My good friend Michael Cader took this idea and ran with it, creating calendars that offered tens of millions of copies.

After all, everybody is aware of what day it’s, and if you actually need to know the date, properly, that’s fairly simple to seek out as properly.

So why spend $20 on a block of pulped wooden that tells you one thing you already know?

It’s the mix of presence and pressure.

The presence of holding at present’s message in your hand. “Bummer of a birthmark, Hal!” It’s at present’s perception, and it’s actual, proper right here and proper now.

And the stress of not realizing what tomorrow’s might be, and realizing that wanting forward isn’t a part of the deal.

I’ve at all times handled this weblog as aspiring to a little bit of web page a day magic. The method of writing it step by step and having folks learn it that approach is a part of the attraction.

So, when Michael requested me to (lastly, forty + years later) make my very personal calendar, it was thrilling. And that is the primary printed one I do know of that features movies.

You possibly can pre-order one at present. You’ll get it in loads of time for January 1. No honest peeking forward.
