The Log Book

How to: get outta jail, validate tax issues and settle personal questions – keep a daily log/record/diary of your activities.

* A bound journal (where page can’t be removed/added) can be valuable evidence should you ever need to answer the question: “Where were you on the day/night of___?” If you keep your records on an electronic device where entries can be edited, hacked and/or changed, it might not be acceptable for legal purposes.

* With print-out paid receipts stapled to relevant dates, it can be helpful at tax time – think IRS audits.

* Refrain from posting personal or embarrassing comments – just the people you were with, the locations and basic and relevant facts. However, significant verbal remarks by you or others can be constructive if recall of a threat, quoted price, or other promises need substantiating. Written evidence trumps verbal statements/outbursts/claims.

Recently, I’ve been re-reading some of my decades-old musings and discover sometimes the memory of events or timelines ain’t exactly as I remember. Ditto others who have claimed events did/didn’t happen when they were with me on a certain date. The diary solves a lot of such disagreements. I’ve maintained and relied upon my journals since 1965.
