Jane Lake and Checks!
A new year means trying to remember what year it is when writing out a check! Of course, who uses checks anymore?
Anything that can be automatically paid, I do it. All of my monthly bills are paid through an online account. Quite frankly, I'm surprised that checks haven't gone the way of the subway token.
Of course, now the IRS has decided that cash contributions for charitable organizations can not be deducted on your income tax, which means writing a check may be the only viable alternative in some cases. I guess I will be handing out checks to homeless people in the subway stations from now on. I just hope I put the correct year!
I entered this in the Philosophy Blog War. Pleases vote for my entry here:

Oh, there's still a place for checks. In fact, you'll find a few in my corner of the web.
