Pluggers by Rick McKee for January 16, 2012

Got a few of those sitting around.

Actually, 1984’s calendar is identical to 2012’s.

One person’s trash is another person’s treasure!!

Every 28 years, its the same calendar. It might be the same between there too – but every 28 years, its the same for sure.

So all we need are 28 old calendars. This makes my head hurt..

They cycle about every 22 years. My Aunt had one (reprint) from the 1800’s in her kitchen. Always thought it was a hoot.

Except for one (a gift), that’s what’s on our walls now.

There are only 14 calendars possible: one per day of the week for Jan. 1 times two for leap years. You can Google for “perpetual calendar” to find a table of equivalences.

I’ve been re-using old calendars for years but found I hadn’t kept a 1984 for some reason, so I had to get a new one for 2012.

That was one cool commercial! You didn’t even know what they were advertising.

I reuse my extra special calendars.

There are events (like Easter-related dates, Superbowl, etc.) that are different, but my wife changes those as well – and doesn’t buy whitening compound by the drum, either.

If you keep a calendar for four years, it will current, except for the year.
