     $taskName = "Reorder Business Cards"
     $taskAction = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "powershell.exe" -Argument "-Command `"Write-Output 'Time to reorder business cards from Vistaprint'`""
     $taskTrigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -At $reminderDate -Once
     Register-ScheduledTask -Action $taskAction -Trigger $taskTrigger -TaskName $taskName -Description "Reminder to reorder business cards from Vistaprint"
