    public override ILookUpObjectList GetLabels()
    {
        return list;
    }   
    public override void InitLists()
    {
        list = new ListObjectList();
        list.Add(new ListObject(0, "None", Color.Black));
        list.Add(new ListObject(1, "Important", Color.Red));
        list.Add(new ListObject(2, "Business", Color.Purple));
        list.Add(new ListObject(3, "Personal", Color.Tomato));
        list.Add(new ListObject(4, "Vacation", Color.Pink));
