I share your sentiment. I still have my Casio scientific calculator I bought in college -- 23 years ago. Use it at work almost daily. What a ride that number adding machine has been through... Thanks for the post -- brings back memories... -Z-man.

Classic. In my desk drawer here I have a box of 5,000 staples from FEDCO ($0.83). They were even made in the USA (are new staples still made here, I dunno?)

Ah, my liver.

I had a little box of wood toothpicks that lasted 20 years. Just used them up a couple of months ago. The price on the box said 35 cents.

man, it's weird that I identify with this. I have the same model HP Business Consultant II calculator that I was using 17 years ago when Microsoft came out with MS DOS 4.0 and Windows 2.0. But rather than let the calculator die, I have been going on Craigslist and buying up identical backup calculators, sort of my way of staying in the '80s I guess...eeek!
I also still use the same style Pentel Superball pens, yellow stickies, same coffeemaker.... |

I still have a box of 3 ring paper protector rings so the holes don't rip. They were a pain to use when I was in Jr high but for some unknown reson they have withstood the test of time. 27 moves and they have stuck with me. I feel obligated to keep them with me until I die - prehaps they shall be buried with me...

I have a cardboard box from an external SCSI harddrive, which cost north of $1000(over 20 years ago). Drive long gone, The box still useful holding x-mas ornaments. I call it my $1000 box.
Put something valuable in the staple box. Extend it's life. I get it. |
