Love that!

Nice handwriting too, BTW....

"It's very nice, but frankly, when I signed that list for a P-51, what I had in mind was a fountain pen."

I've been of the opinion, of late, that we don't take sin seriously enough.

I quite agree 

However, we are venturing into forbidden territory here abouts and may be smited by those in charge for our trespass.

Lovely handwriting.  My aim is to get my own as good as yours. 🫰

I like your cursive handwriting.  The descenders g/y and the angles on the O look neat but also the connectors are very smooth and not stiff.  It looks like a free hand spencerian.

May I ask the pen and ink you used?

The Reed College Thursday Scriptorium is working on "Secretary Hand" this semester - the style of writing practiced by Shakespeare and others of his time. I'm just two weeks into it so far. The biggest breakthrough is that I can actually decipher documents written in this script ... sometimes. Here's a sample of my practice from today:

Enjoy!

Epicurus. I suspect this has been posted before, but it’s worth being copied many times.
