Where did you learn this?

At zombie finishing school?

On Wik'pedia?

Dead* Lloyd, do you doubt

me? Obviously, I am

a zombie expert.

 

*This was a typo,

or perhaps a Freudian

slip. Suspicious? Yes?

I'm sure you have heard

"It takes one to know one", right?

Are YOU a zombie?

No, I'm fairly sure

I'm just a brain floating in

a vat. Hopefully.

Try Noodlers, Meghan,

and your haiku will become

banned in nine countries.

An impressive brain!

While afloat within a vat

you can type and write!

Don't be silly, Lloyd!

Only that most dreaded ink --

Baystate Blue -- is banned.

 

Its super brightness

scares Governments, both foreign

and domestic ones!

can you give me more money

and a Ferrari?

Invisible inks

and Bulletproof inks are used

on militia clothes.

 

You can't see soldiers

and you can't shoot them, either.

Must be used for "good".

Every ink needs

its own nib and paper, to

help it spread the word

Happiness isn't getting what you want, it's wanting what you've got.

Been busy building

Do zombies store brains?

Perhaps, pickle them in brine

or dehydrate them?

Haikus' wisdom changed

Nokin's fluffy cat's blue eyes

to a tiger's gaze.

those thingies called apostrophes

That's no tiger's gaze....

Your cat's on a catnip high.

Identity change

for poor kitty in two words:

Witness Protection!

Little kitty saw

What it shouldn’t see. Was it

crime or lo-ve-ly?

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
