From: In the here and now, for now.
On the long standing advice of my main wrench, independent shop, here is the schedule I follow like clockwork. If you watch the clock, whenever it hits a 0 or a 5 followed by 3 zeros, it's easy to remember when to do something. This is one way to do it and everybody has their own standards, it's a place to start and I guarantee you'll get further feedback.

Oil and filter every 5K
Rotate tires every 5K
Brake Fluid every 20K
Coolant every 30K
PCV vent valve every 30K
PS Fluid flush every 30K
lugs every 40K
Serpentine belt every 40K
Fuel Filter Change every 50K
BG-44K every 6 mo.

Your question made me look. Somewhere the 'P' for plugs disappeared. I've never found it necessary to replace the lugs on a scheduled basis.
