        This is what I do (assuming your on Linux):

        After the TEXT directive in your .conkyrc file put:
                
        Reminders for today - ${execi 3600 date "+%A, %B %d - %Y"}
        ${execpi 900 /usr/bin/rem | sed -e '1d'}

        ---

        The fist line I use a custom date to output something like:
        "Reminders for today - Monday, January 24 - 2011

        The next line outputs my reminders and I pipe it to SED to
        delete the first line.

        Hope this helps, ~Shawn
