NeatDesk Desktop Scanner and Digital Filing System – $249.99

Thursday, October 27, 2011

Oh come on, this is ridiculous.

You don’t want to be on your deathbed wondering where that Arby’s receipt from 2002 went.

So you can look me in the eye and, with a straight face, tell me you’d rather your legacy on this earth be orderly and organized rather than meaningful? You’re telling me you’d take a refurbished NeatDesk Desktop Scanner and Digital Filing System over the chance to really LIVE and see the world, accomplish something, and know that you left a mark?

I just don’t get that, man.

Sure, your little scanning doo-dad makes it easy to scan and collect receipts, financials, and documents of just about any size. Yeah, I see how it identifies and extracts data from paper documents and organizes it in a database. It’ll even export your data to Excel, Quicken, QuickBooks, or TurboTax. But you know what it won’t do?

Well yeah. It won’t work with a Mac. But you know what ELSE it won’t do?

It won’t give you a new lease on life. It won’t show you the top of Mt. Everest. It won’t take you diving along the Great Barrier Reef. And it sure as hell won’t give you a richer, fuller, more meaningful human existence.

“So you’re saying you have no documents for your IRS audit today, Ms. Timmons?”

Yeah. That’s the short version.
