Did you know that calendars can be recycled easily? This is because they run in cycles of 6 and 11 years. The trick is to find a calendar that matches dates with the days of the week for the current year. For example, a 2009 calendar can be reused in 2015, 2026, 2037 and 2043!
So, if you choose a printable 2008 calendar, you can use it again to in the year 2036 and 2064. However by that time you can be sure that calendars will BE very different to what we use today!
The 2008 calendar shows the days, weeks and months for the year 2008 AD. The 'AD' stands for Anno Domini, a Latin phrase that means year of our lord and refers to the traditionally reckoned year of Jesus Christ?s birth.
