Accent On The Past

Accent On The Past
Originally uploaded by 365 Things

What: Highlighter that could no longer perform its appointed function.
Origin: Swag from a conference.
Usage: Not much.
How long kept: Andersen Consulting became Accenture in January, 2001. According to Wikipedia, the new name was meant to invoke "accent on the future".   I'm guessing that this relic came from a conference I attended in 1998.
Why kept: Of course, I might need to highlight something, and I Might Need It! It Might Be Useful! And it was in a box of pens, etc. in my desk. Storage Boxes Are Evil.
Destination: Garbage.

Confession: I have at least 2 other pink highlighters, as well as purple, green and the classic yellow. Aargh.
