Not as nice as last year, but still good, August 19, 2008
I carry my 2008 Dilbert planner/calendar around with me everywhere... It fits nicely in my purse and has just enough room to keep the information I need in it.
Being proactive I went ahead and ordered my 2009 calendar because my boss is already planning things into next year. The 2009 version has the comics set up the same, filling each page on the left. They are just as funny as always (you either love Dilbert or you have never lived in cubeville). However the main difference between the 2008 and 2009 version is that the pages on the right, which contain the weekly planning portion, are black with little colored or white rectangles going from top to bottom. The change from the two by two blocks stacked 3 high didn't really bother me, what did bother me was the outline of the pages being black, meaning you can't overrun your writing into the colored edges... if you have something long, you'd better make it fit because if it runs out of the box you won't be able to read it.
I love the spiral holding the calendar together because it allows me to just flip to the week I'm in and leave it there until the following week - no flipping or hunting needed. The paper is quite thick and my 2008 version has held up quite well to the many abuses I put it through (furious page flipping, killing bugs, functioning as a coaster etc.) Because this one is made the same I expect the same duribility
Also for those of you who like me are lefties and use the uniball style pen to keep the back of your arm from changing color as you write... a uniball pen will not write on the waxy glossy paper they use. I have to keep a ball point pen hooked to it for writing because it is the only writing utensil that seems to work (no pencils either).
Other than that, I love this calendar and will probably own the 2010 version as well (unless they start putting out Calvin and Hobbs or the Far Side in calendars).

I have been buying these Dilbert planning calendars for years.Of course, one needs to be a Dilbert fan to enjoy them. If I were to misplace mine, it would be a disaster.

Dilbert Engagement Calendar, February 16, 2011
Love this product. Each set of pages shows a full page comic on the left, and a week-long view on the right for appointments.
