Whatever happened to the Filofax?
April 6, 2012
When I was six I got my first (and only) Filofax. While it was kinda nice to have somewhere to store all your information, I wouldn’t recommend giving it to a six year old for their entertainment as it soon got discarded along with all the other “educational” toys.

It was starting to sound like a disaster movie. But when have we ever been able to control the world? We certainly can’t control nature, and […]
