Even for quick notes, he'll just open a .txt (Notepad file). Sometimes he will scribble things onto various forms of paper lying around, like newspapers, receipts, envelopes, post-its...but then he NEVER checks them again.

Once, when he was running his own business, he bought the smallest size spiral-bound Day-Timer. He had a lot of trouble deciding what to get, asked me for advice, and seemed to feel bad about spending money on it.
