I did find the softcover version... these things are hard to find, by
the way. The Mill Creek location had some in stock.

12 month vs. 18 month planner

Hello!

I am really looking at getting back into the analogue... I had a Palm
TX that died for the 3rd time, and I am just not willing to replace or
fix it again. I've owned a lot of different PDAs, all the way back to
the Palm Professional. I like them a lot, but I am sick of having to
make sure my batteries are charged before I go on a trip, etc.

I don't think it's very out of place. Modo y Modo is shipping a
patent leather moleskine. While really nice, I don't see the point,
except the higher price one....

That said, they are nicely done, too and would make a nice gift.

My first thought when I saw this was, "Isn't shark skin delicate?".
What do I know? It looks as though a lot of work went into this. I
like it. Especially the way the band and skin bare touch each other.

Frank,
yes.
routinely.
Often the best way for me to learn to do just about anything is to ask
the creator "what were you thinking?" because often they explain
technical challenges that I may not have even imagined. Of course,
sometimes they see my questions as insults...
Yes, but it is a "creation job" that exists in a context of other

Dear Mike ,Thank you for this nice analysis .
What can i add to this is i am godan IAIDO teacher and my genuin
katanas have shark skin on the Saya which is also covered by URUSHI (
japaneese laquer)
Art in martial art or art in Writing instruments like Namiki pen or
Moleskine is for me same approche.

Traditionally this would be considered a skill that is part of the
making of the sword of a Samurai where the wrap on the handle is most
often based in sharkskin. It is extremely durable and provides
outstanding grip. I make knives (not swords!) and have seen some
excellent work in sharkskin in that arena.

of place ??? as you say.

Frank, Wow--I am curious--why did you do this?

I am not a big moleskine mod fan--one of the reasons I use the
moleskine is that it has everything that I need--but I do have a lot
of friends who create strange Duct Tape Pen Holders or GTD Tab
Systems--so I *generally* understand what drives the customizations

Honestly, I can't justify a $50 notebook. If I'm going to spend that
much, I'll get something hand-bound or something. ;)

They sure look nice, though.

@shinobi77: I know exactly what you mean when you mentioned allowing
many precious thoughts to slip by unrecorded. So much inspirational
energy gone to waste if not recorded on the page in ink!

I do carry my moleskine journal & fountain pen everywhere with me, I
can't leave home without them! However I think the fatigue for me
