Think about it for a moment with me. I already own every Calvin and Hobbes book that has been published, so I own every one of the strips, some of them in multiples. So why would I, and many others, slap down nearly $100 for something we already own? Granted, given ...             Dilbert: 2009 Day-to-Day Calendar Scott Adams Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2008 Brilliant for anyone who's ever worked in an office!
