Abstract
An alarm mechanism includes a first programming for programming an expiration date signifying that an event must be performed. A second programming is included for programming a notification date for notifying a user that the event must be performed. A display device displays the expiration date thereon. A timing mechanism produces an actual date and is connected to the first and second programming. A processor compares the actual date produced by the timing mechanism with each of the expiration date and notification date. An alerting device alerts a user that at least one of the expiration date and the notification date is greater than or equal to the actual date. Upon the at least one of the expiration date and the notification date is greater than or equal to the actual date, the processor causes the alerting device to emit an alert thereby notifying the user that the event must be performed.
