Before tech...Filofax

Just so my Luddite friends -- I'm looking at you, Daly -- don't feel totally teched-out in this blog, I've prepared the video montage below as a tribute to the Filofax.

Well, actually, it's a bunch of "cameos" a Filofax makes as the MacGuffin in the 1990 film Taking Care of Business. Plot summary: Yuppie Charles Grodin loses his Filofax, escaped con Jim Belushi finds it and takes over this life...

Although I don't use one for data capture or PIM storage any more, I still have my trusty Filofax (four of them, actually, and lots of old filler sheets), and I keep credit cards, checkbooks, deposit slips, stamps, gift cards, membership cards, library cards, and even extra cash stored in one I keep in my desk. I even have a USB key with backups of key files hooked to it. It never leaves my desk.

Anyway, UnDigital Ones, enjoy!
