New Orleans Area Meetup


Titivillus

Recommended Posts

There seems to be near the critical mass of people in the New Orleans/ Baton Rouge area to ask if a little pen get together might be possible.

 

I'd say the French Quarter but the parking would be hellacious :roflmho: So what about maybe the Barnes & Noble on Veterans? Or maybe some other place that has parking for maybe a Sunday Afternoon.

Count me in if it comes to fruition. I just posted a note on the general writing instruments board re previous efforts in organizing something in southeast Louisiana and just noted yours. Thomas

Nice to see a Baton Rougean on the list! Since I work in Baton Rouge, I feel, since there are now 2 of us, that we should get together at the Barnes and Nobles in Baton Rouge! Lots of parking, and we could eat next door at Macoroni Grill, or across the street at Albasha's Lebanese Restaurant which are both within walking distance.

Or, if you want to take in a movie....right across the street!

      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

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      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
