2.0 out of 5 stars Great Pictures - Not Practical As A Calendar, January 10, 2009

By	Stuart M. Teramoto (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Great pictures of ships from several of the Star Trek series. As a functional calendar, however, this item fails completely. The weeks of the month are not shown separately, but seem to be broken up at random intervals. You cannot tell at a glance the starting date of a week without looking verly closely for the small text "Sun" listed by the number. Imagine listing the 30 days of a month with three long rows of 10 days each. There are no boxes near the dates to write reminders in. The holidays for the month are listed separately from the weeks of the month, so if you are looking at the date on the calendar, you cannot tell if it is a holiday or not unless you look down at the very bottom of the page at the very small text that says when the holidays for that month are.

If you are only interested in the pictures, you'll be happy, if you're after a functional calendar that you can glance at and tell if it is holiday and what day of the week it is, then this is not the Logical choice.

1.0 out of 5 stars Useless as a calendar, January 5, 2009

By	Robert E. Alexander - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The pictures are beautiful, but the calendar is useless. It's not a standard 7 days per row, Sunday to Saturday. It's 10 days per row one month, 12 the next month, seven the next (but going Wednesday to Tuesday). Unbelievably stupid!! Did someone actually think they were improving the calendar this way?

5.0 out of 5 stars Star Trek Fan's Must Have, September 13, 2009

By	Christopher Gleason - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

There's a lot of crappy Star Trek products out there, and Lord knows I've bought my share. The Ships of the Line: 2009 Wall Calendar, the latest in a series that started back in 2001, is not one of those products. This calendar, featuring mostly computer-generated images of ships from all eras of Star Trek, is beautiful. It's art. My personal favorite is the June picture, "Take Her Out," showing the most beautiful of the Star Trek Enterprises. My four-year-old son is a budding Trekker, and it is these Ships of the Line calendars, including the 2009 version, that he loves to look at the best. This is a joy that we share. Highly recommended.
