The Bestest Cheap Pen You Can Buy

Seriously, try the Pilot G-2 and see if it doesn't make your ballpoint feel like you're scratching wood with a rusty nail.

They're about a buck each at any office supply store or the stationery aisle of your favorite mega-chain.  For that price, how could you *not* try one?

1 That's the pen I use at work. The fine tip is truly fine enough to write lots of stuff in a very small space. Some of my co-workers complain about the ink blobbing or drying out, but I've used several 'til they were empty.

And I have the empty pens in a cup on my desk, in case I ever get around to finding refills. (Our purchasing department seems content to buy just the pens by the box.) In the meantime, it drives people nuts when they go to borrow a pen and it is out of ink, and I get teased for keeping the dead pens as trophies.

2 Since I happen to work for a major pen manufacturer - not Pilot - I have not had the pleasure. I do have the occasional "competitive product" in my pen cup though. You find them lying around here and there if you know where to look.

I applaud your new plan. Sounds good. I can't write old-fashioned letters or anything else, in fact, signing my name on a check or whatever has become a real adventure. Because I can't do handwriting and never really could. I just spazz. My brain knows what I want to write and how to form the letters of the words but I can't seem to get it to emerge from my hand legibly. It's gotten a lot worse over the years to the point where I can't even read my own (hand) writing. Not kidding.

4 Odd, it does the same thing to me.  I wonder if having a post name the same as the category name somehow screwed something up.

Oh Pixy!
