I have been lurking for a while and decided I should join. I'm not sure how I found this site, but I sure enjoy it.

I have been collecting FP's for several years. I began with pens from Levenger and have several of their models. I also have some Conklins, Conway Stewarts, Parkers, Pelikans, and Watermans (basically whatever I could find on sale ).

One of the forums that I find very interesting is the Inky. I never knew that there were so many colors and I'm very Impressed by the members who mix their inks to acheive that "perfect" color.

I am not sure I can add any knowledge. However, I am impressed with the knowledge and helpfulness of the members of this forum.

Thank you.

Welcome, Badger Red!!! I hope you find your time on this Forum worthwhile. Join the Snail-maillist, check out and leand more and get addicted to fountain pens andinks and paper even further!!!

BTW, Iam a Wolverine fan,and I think the badgers will probably win the Big-10 football championship.

Greetings!!!

Welcome to FPN from Kentucky!!

Greetings from up I94 a ways. I won't discuss Big 10 Football with you or Sid (Wolverine) - nothing to brag about here......

Show us some pictures of your pens, if you get a chance.

Thanks for the welcomes.
I am cautiously optomistic about the up-coming Big 10 season. We return most of our starters and, hopefully, can live up to last years 12-1 record. However, Michigan is always a tough opponent.

Welcome to FPN. Badger Red sounds a likely name for an ink color.

Welcome from NYC. I also love the ink but I recently misplaced two dozen bottles......I am master of things that can't be done!

Welcome to FPN.

Welcome and glad you de-lurked.

Come to think of it, I'm not sure how I found this site either. It's linked on so many other sites. I'm just glad we all found it.

Welcome to FPN!! Gearing up for SEC football around these parts! I think I'm the only person in Arkansas who isn't a Hog fan! Hope you enjoy FPN! Keep those posts and answers coming!

Perry, thanks for the welcome. I would love to get down to see some SEC football. I think they do have the best conference in the county, even if we did beat two of the teams in our last two bowl games.
BTW there is a tight end from ARK Jake Byrne(?) who has orally committed to come to Wisconsin next year.
