"I have everything I wanted! I feel like my pencil case/ collection is completed", immediately followed by the fatal "What more could I want?"

 

This thread made me laugh a lot!

[pajaro]

I'm 69 and I'm sick of pens. I don't want any more pens.

 

I just need that one more old no longer made Montblanc converter for my old black plastic threaded 144 that can't use the new converters. I know there's one in the pen and two new ones in the box, and yeah, I'm 69 and converters last about ten years, but I need three or four spares.

 

Oh, and I need that new black section for that old 144 so I can use the new converters when the old ones are used up.

 

The 144 nib and feed don't really fit right into this new black section. Looks like something for a Mozart, with shorter thread part. GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Oh, there's also this:

 

"I swear I will only buy another new bottle of ink when I finish an old bottle"

[pen2paper]

Ringtops are small, & don't take up much space.
