A New Year, A New Calendar

While my daily calendar still has 19 days remaining on it (the Bad President Countdown Page-a-Day 2008 Calendar goes to January 20 of this year for some strange reason), it was time to get a 2009 calendar. So wanting to get out of the house yesterday, Mel, Emma, and I headed over to the Mall of America yesterday afternoon where we could then walk around quite a bit, and do some window shopping. We ended up in the calendar store, where everything was half off. Looking through the remaining stock of 2009 calendars, I settled on the Life Is Crap 2009 Daily Boxed Calendar. The calendar is a parody of the Life is Good products that have become popular recently, except instead of illustrating good things about life, it has pictures of crappy things that happen. The picture on the calendar yesterday showed a guy driving an SUV into a tunnel with low clearance with the bikes attached to the top of the vehicle being sheared off. And today's illustration is of a snowboarder flying off a snowy cliff. This should be an entertaining calendar.
