No puppy pictures in awhile, so this is a puppy post rather than an O3B post... esp for Tom K.

 

A couple of you know we lost our best friend Rocco a few weeks ago. He was a 13 yo Yorkie and had gone downhill so much over the past few months. Then he got really sick and his little body just crashed. It was such a heartbreak. Cathy and I knew we would get another one day and we did pray for another "perfect dog".

 

Our daughter called one morning and said she had heard of one that a co-worker knew about that his wife wanted, but he said no because they already had 3; would we be interested if it was still available? Long story short, this is Theodore (we'll call him Theo)... 4.8lbs and 14 wks old. Not FOUNTAINPEN trained, so no puppy with pen pictures for awhile :D But I thought some of you dog folk would get a smile out of seeing him.

I would have dubbed that one the alpha and omega!

You've expressed what I feel every time I glance over at the fountain pens inked and ready to write on my desk.

Zuji and Theo have diplomatic immunity... for all intents and doggy purposes.

Oh what a thoughtful puppy! He must be contemplating the antics of his human and trying to work out the attraction of the pointy stick things, while appreciating the scent of the tangerines.

 

I’m partial to the close up with fruit, myself.

I should really stop looking though this thread when new posts pop up. The, OBBB nibs just look amazing.

 

However, for me, unless a special edition 149 is released and in my price range I will simply have to live the OBBB life through the amazing pictures provided in this thread.

I used to say that... now I say "I'm SO glad I bought that 149 Rose Gold O3B, it's one of my FAVORITE pens!" ;)

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
