[Rain Man]

Faxing- About once every three years someone asks us for a fax or sends one.

Pay Phone- Probably not in a dozen years or so.

Stapler- I do occasionally use a stapler if I print a report to review. That doesn't happen very often.

Pushpins/Thumbtacks-I used some about 5 or 6 years ago when I put something on a bulletin board. I just realized that I never moved the bulletin board when I switched offices.

Checks- I just wrote two checks to the IRS and the Colorado Department of Revenue. I don't want to give them my checking account, so I dug out the checkbook. I also write checks for magazine subscriptions because if you use a credit card, the fine print says that they'll just bill your credit card forever unless you make them stop.

PC- Is a laptop different than a PC? I use a laptop about 18 hours a day. But I haven't had a desktop PC in 16+ years.

Stamps-When I wrote the checks to the IRS and Colorado Department of Revenue, I put stamps on the envelopes. I also use them for magazine subscriptions for the same reason.

Newspaper-Funny coincidence. We've always received the newspaper, but got a renewal notice a couple of weeks ago for the Denver Post. We decided that it was no longer worth $250. We still get the Wall Street Journal, though.

Magazines-National Geographic and Smithsonian. My wife gets a couple of fashion magazines.

Books- It's been a long time. I read online now. It's terrible, but I don't read books these days. I read articles online.

Records or CD's- I got an ipod about six or seven years ago and I think we eventually gave away all of our CDs. We have the old stereo out in the garage now.

On an unrelated note, I just bought a new ipod last night. Society says that men can't buy pink stuff, and I laugh in society's face. Plus, I think it's fuchsia, not pink.
